Did someone say snow?!


I learned this morning that this winter has been the snowiest winter on record for the Cincinnati area. So far this year, we have had 36 inches of snow. This is about 36 inches more than I would like .

Morgan is continuing to do well. She does have some bone and joint discomfort occasionaly which I'm sure is a result of the chemotherapy. She pushes herself much to hard in PE at school and then pays the price for it a couple of days later. She is having to get adjusted to waking up early and going to bed at a reasonable time. Being in and out of the hospital for so long got her sleep/wake cycle off balance but she is recovering.

Her hair is coming in nicely. I can't resist rubbing her head. She is thinking that in about 1 month she will stop wearing the wig. The wig is cute on her but her natural hair, even though it is very short, is much prettier.

Morgan's next oncology appointment is May 4. She will have PET scan, lung CT scan, X-ray and blood work. I pray that these scans remain unchanged.

I had the privilege of driving all three kids to school this morning. It reminded me of the days when I drove them every morning. What a joy it was to hear them laughing at one another and being silly at 6:45 am. I thank God for moments like that. They are just ordinary times but oh so special.

Thank you for your continued prayers. love,

Reena & family

Yesterday's Scans


Morgan had her PET & CT scans yesterday as planned. She saw her oncologist afterwards to go over the results but the results were not in. So he gave us the option of coming home and he would call with results. Well, we finally got the call this morning and he told us her scans were good!!!!!!!! No changes since her last scans back in November. Needless to say Kevin & I were so thrilled to hear this good news. Morgan is at school so I sent her a text to give her the news so hopefully by now she knows. I can't wait to see the smile on her face when she walks through the door today after school.


I took this photo of Morgan just a few days before her birthday last month. This is the wig that she wears to school. She looks absolutely adorable in it.

Thank you for praying and thank you for reading the blog :-)
