So far, no news. The doctors came in earlier today to let us know that they're still waiting on the test results. We should get together tomorrow morning, early afternoon to hear what they have to say. They are testing for a more rare type of leukemia. I believe the acronym is AMKL. She gave some information to Todd earlier, but I haven't seen anything yet. We keep praying this is a fluke and she'll be okay and healthy in no time. If it isn't AMKL and her stats stay steady we should be able to go home early next week & just come for blood tests and possible transfusions a few times a week. Last night she ended up having another blood transfusion as well. She's still in wonderful spirits, playing and walking. She's started to say two syllable words as well. It's wonderful to hear. She's saying all kinds of things since we've been here. We play play play, and walk walk walk. Right now she's crying because she doesn't want to sleep in her crib. She wants to sleep with Mama. It breaks my heart to hear her cry. I'm trying not to give in as we've slept together on this horrific chair almost every night that we've been here and it's bad enough with just me on it. I just watch her sleep when she's here too. Todd and I are okay. We're getting anxious to find something out and hopefully go home soon. Neither of us want to be home without Kate though. There have been so many up's and down's since we've been here, once we find out what this is it will be nice to finally have some consistency. Of course we pray that she doesn't have a rare form of leukemia and she is just fighting something off. Again, we should find out tomorrow. They've been saying that for 9 days though. I've gotten used to this just being a waiting game. It's a horrible waiting game. Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, prayers, emails, voicemails & texts. I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to most of you, I'm not much of a phone person, especially under the circumstances. I'll post here when I know something. Thanks again.
Love,
Krystal
