Waiting for answers

Olivia has been fever free for about 12 hours now! However, her blood counts when we got in yesterday, as well as her spinal tap results from Friday last week showed elevated white blood cells. It could be caused by a few things and we are now in a process of elimination to figure out the reason for the numbers to go up. One thing for sure is that the increased white blood cells are not caused by new leukemia cells in her body. That at least is a relief.

More blood tests today and a spinal tap is scheduled tomorrow morning to try and give us answers. Please continue to pray with us that everything will be alright.

Meanwhile, Olivia has been keeping herself busy today doing some painting! I'm so glad to see her relaxed and calm, a complete 360° from last night at the ER. It was a rough night for all of us.
