Ella got to go home today after finishing her third round of chemo. Girl is crushing it!
She is halfway through her treatments at this point. She has a MRI on Oct. 7. The next three rounds will be tough. Sarah was told that they will have to bathe her every 6 hours while she’s getting one of her chemos. It’s apparently excreted through the skin. She gets it for two days and then it stays in her system for two more. 4 total days with baths every 6 hours. Good chance Ella won’t dig that.
Ella is also going to be featured in a local Kansas City magazine. She had a photo shoot today. (Pics below). The magazine is doing a story on one of the nurses and they want to use Ella as one of “the faces for pediatric cancer.”
Ella’s been doing well overall. Playing and having fun. (Except for when she got locked out of the play room. See her disappointment below).
