Back home

Hi Everyone,

Victoria's has been home since Tuesday :)
We were so happy to get her home and continue on with our busy life, that I didn't feel like writing more than a Facebook status to announce her homecoming. We haven't had to do it often, but it's amazing how we have adjusted to putting our life on hold. Bags get packed, Jake gets shipped off, meals for a week and coffee K-cups in excess come along too. Once we get all settled in on 4 North at CHEO it's like we never left. Our home away from home. Every plan gets put on hold. And then, we come home, do laundry and pick up where we left off.
Victoria is doing well. She is just as happy and active as ever. We had a great weekend at home all together. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and Victoria was happy to swim and play in the backyard with the hose -just like a normal 3 year old. It was nice to have a 5 day break from the hospital. That is a really long time in her world.
Tomorrow, she returns for blood work. We are again waiting for her counts to rise again. When they are high enough she will begin maintenance treatments.

We did get to take our lunch outside for the picnic I had promised her
