We're Baaaack! Start of 2nd week of round 2- Arsenic

The first week of round 2 flew by!! Now we are on to week 2 of the Arsenic Trioxide infusion treatments. The first week went well. However, the nurse was using the good side of the port. Just yesterday, the bad side was accessed, flushed and "heprinized". It is not used to draw blood because it still doesn't work very well. We only have to go downtown about once or twice per week now for treatments. The rest of the week we are in Rockville at the Children's Outpatient Infusion Clinic. It is much more convenient to go there! :-)  Only 3.5 weeks until our next 1 week break! Then she will be mostly inpatient at the DC Children's for the rest of the summer :-( . She is looking forward to college and trying not to think about summer.

Just last Friday night, Jessie went to her prom. She and Colin had a great time!
