Update for Tuesday at St judes...

Well, Tessa is now off of IV fluids and starting to eat.(if you call 5 m&m's and one sausage eating). But praise the Lord she is really getting back to her old self. Tonite though she vomited again, I think that it is from some medicine she is taking because that is exactly when she vomited last nite to!!
We now wait for her blood counts to finish going down and start their way up before we can come home. Dr Galindo said probably not until Monday...:( we will see. It seems like everywhere I look today I see either a parent or a child crying. Some days it is really hard to watch and then you also have your own child that is critically ill on top of it. I comforted one mother who was crying because she was for the first time reading what her child had in print. It was just really sinking in. Some-times you just can't really believe it but when you read it , it is real. Please pray for all these children here...
