We just finished another MRI earlier this month, and things are pretty good again. There was some talk the last two times about a possible surgery for Ammy to relieve some of the pressure on her spine. The general agreement at this time is to hold off on this. The Doctors are not sure what is going on, but are afraid that the possible good that could coeme of doing a surgery is outweighed by the possible harm it could cause! So for now Ammy gets to just keep being a kid! There are also still two grey spots on the MRI that they continue to watch. We don't know what these are, as of now they have not grown or changed shape or anything. Doctors are not concerned... her momma is. If they do change at any time, or if there is a need for surgery we will biopsy them.. until then wait and watch. Ammy has now been a year without cancer so normally her mri's would go to once a year but her neurological team is keeping her at 3 months to keep an eye on her spinal fluids and whatever else is going on there.
Other than that things are going well for us all. Ammy and I both begin our spring Break next week and are excited for all the plans we have. We will be spending at least a day with Michelle's and Doug's kids.. wish i could say all the cousins but sean and jen are just so far away! We are also going to be going to the beach to watch the whale migration.Should be fun! I will make sure to fill you all in on the details and add some pictures.
