I have trouble coming up with different ways to put how Sarah is doing.  When people ask, I usually say, she is doing good.  She has remission but that doesn't change the treatment.  She has been getting infusions the last couple of days.  I was in the clinic with her for 6 hours yesterday, and Jess was there for a couple hours today. She has appointments for the next two days as well.  It is going to be a long two years...

She is having nausea due to the chemo medications that she is on.  We have her on Zofran to help, but this morning she wanted a soy nut butter sandwich for breakfast and about hurled after the first bite, since she hadn't taken her Zofran yet.  Hopefully the Zofran will continue to be enough for her.

Sarah's birthday has snuck up on us.  It is Monday.  Jess and I were talking about what she needs.  Her leukemia treatment overshadows any of her other needs.  We came up with a few things that we can get her.  She has asked for a cake with two front teeth.  Similar to the ones I made for Gus's birthday but she wants it pink.
