Peyton had a good day today. We were really concerned about her, because she had been bleeding a lot (in her urine, and when she vomited) over the past week, due to fluctuating platelet counts and also as a side effect of one of her chemo drugs. So, after what was not the greatest of weekends, my sister and Dru finally got a bit of good news today. Peyton had a second spinal tap (the first one, done last week confirmed that the cancer was in Peyton's cerebrospinal fluid/ central nervous system- brain, etc). Today, Peyton had a follow up spinal tap which showed that the chemo has gotten rid of the cancer cells in her cerebrospinal fluid. Yay! This is definitely a step in the right direction. Also, the second bit of good news was that Peyton had a CT scan today, which showed no more bleeding on the brain. Peyton was born with two small bleeds and, despite the fact that Peyton's platelet count has been low much of the time since then, the bleeding has disappeared! Yay, Peyton!!! So please please please let's continue to pray that her cancer goes into the first stage of remission (M1) quickly.
