5/2/05 - Today Hannah went back into hospital for a THIRD round of Chemotherapy. It will be a 5 day course which will end late Friday night. If all goes well and Hannah's blood counts remain good after the treatment she MAY be able to come back home again sometime on the weekend. Hannah did EXTREMELY well at home this week. Upon returning to hospital today all her blood counts remained GOOD. Hannah did not require any blood transfusions. Her weight also remained the same so she did not LOSE any while at home. We have some VERY PRELIMINARY BUT EXTREMELY EXCITING NEWS!!! Karen & Stephen were told by the doctor today that they MAY HAVE 2 POTENTIAL BONE MARROW DONORS & 1 POTENTIAL STEM CELL DONOR. This is in the VERY EARLY STAGES but the news was so ENCOURAGING it just had to be shared. THESE MATCHES HAVE NOT YET BEEN CONFIRMED nor has the process begun for the transplant. BUT, this is a GREAT SIGN that our prayers are being heard. Let's continue to pray and that ONE of these AMAZING people can give Hannah what she need to BEAT THIS DISEASE!!!! Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to be on the Bone Marrow Donor Registry. Eventhough you may not be helping Hannah you may have the potential to save another precious LIFE, that in itself is a great gift.
