Hannah got some much needed respite from the hospital for 2 weeks.
Her next round of Chemo is even more intense.
       
       
Hannah's Second Visit to BC Children's Hospital
       
       

During Hannah's 2nd round of chemotherapy she has had to be put in isolation.

A feeding tube was put in that made her gag so hard she vomited blood.

       

 

After a week of having the feeding tube in place, Hannah accidentally stepped on it and ripped it out. When they tried to re-insert it she was completely traumatized. Without the feeding tube Hannah is getting extremely thin as the blisters from the chemo makes it very difficult for her to eat.

 
     
  Watch news coverage about decision.

UPDATE NOVEMBER 16th, 2012:

We got some pretty upsetting news today. They are wanting Hannah to have radiation . We were ok with it until they explained what outcome . Hannah will not be able to grow tall like she was suppose to also the radiation is going to be directly on her tummy which will cause her tummy to not grow properly either . Hannah will have no chance of having kids after radiation. If we decide against radiation there is a 80 percent chance Hannah's cancer will come back. If we go through with radiation there is a 20 percent chance of it coming back . We are emotional and don't know what to do. Hannah will be sedated everyday for 6 weeks well radiation is happening. After hearing this news Hannah's dad Rob just can not let her go.

   

UPDATE DECEMBER 13th, 2012

Hannah has become very sick . She was rushed into emergency at 1am with counts very low. Puking and very high fever . X ray was done and shows some kind of infection possibly pheumonia . If she gets worse she will be air lifted back to BC Children's Hospital. We are in isolation as her counts are 0.00

 

UPDATE DECEMBER 15th, 2012

We are happy to say Hannah has finally broken her tempature and had a blood transfusion today. She has her energy back and now has color back in her. We are waiting for the results of the infection that hopefully will come tomorrow to see what we are dealing with. If nothing comes back then it is a viral infection and can not be treated. Chemo was suppose to be on Monday at BC Children's Hospital but will be postponed as she is to sick for it.

We will be at Victoria General Hospital until her counts come back up and her fever stays away and of course after we find out what were dealing with. Hannah is still keeping her spirits up considering she is locked in a isolation room. She is doing arm hugs (blood pressure ) and tempature on herself and making the best of it.

 

UPDATE JANUARY 11, 2013

Good news and bad news. Hannah's scans came back cancer free to the naked eye. But as they zoomed in on machines to have a really good look found 2 small hot spots . One being in the lung and one attached to the heart. They do believe chemo will kill those hot spots but radiation has to happen anyways. Only problem is that now having found those hot spots they now have to do more radiation than expecting and most likely radiate her heart. We all know the horrible side effects of this.

Surgery doesn't look like a possibility because its just to close to heart. Hannah's case gets presented next Thursday at the Tumor board and they will discuss what the next step will be. We were hoping for better news then this but of course will accept it if she is to be cancer free.
