We heard from the doctor this evening that they have decided to postpone Maggie's Methotrexate chemotherapy tomorrow. They would like to wait until she no longer has the bacteria in her system. To determine this they need several days for her blood cultures to "grow." We think that they might get back on track early next week. It looks like we won't be returning home anytime soon. She will have her spinal tap with chemo tomorrow as scheduled, however.
On a brighter note, Maggie acted more herself tonight. She smiled several times and has begun to babble again. It is so wonderful to see this and see remnants of our little girl. We think that the blood transfusion she had earlier in the day might have perked her up. Whatever it might be, we'll take it. She also ate almost 2 servings of pears tonight. Another good sign that perhaps the mouth sores are beginning to heal.
Pray for Maggie tomorrow and especially around 4:00 when she goes into surgery to replace her broviac with a temporary central IV.

I am so happy she is smiling and babbling again. I am sure all of this is so hard. We will pray for Maggie today, and for a quick recovery from the bacteria. Keep your spirits high and know how mch everyone is surronding you in prayer and love!
