Makenzie is doing well right now. She's been off the steroids for over a month. She is walking better, getter stronger, and has more energy. She's got her sparkle back. And she's talking as much as ever. She's even back in dance lessons. Mom goes with her to help her out. She's doing well in school and staying all day most days. She seems to be tolerating this new chemo they have her on well. She did go to the ER a few Fridays ago for a fever. You have to be really careful with fevers when kids are on chemo and have shunts. But it turned out to be nothing more than an upper respiratory virus along with some congestion and coughing.
Alex and Kenzie delivered the toys they collected to the Phoenix Children's Hospital a couple of weeks ago. Thanks to the work of these girls and the generosity of the Lake Pleasant Ward, the Pleasant Valley Ward, and many others they donated several thousand dollars worth of toys, clothes, and gift cards that will be given to kids at the hospital.
We continue to receive all kinds of support from so many amazing people. We are grateful... more than you can know. Things would be far more difficult for us right now if it were not for so many people helping us in so many ways. Please, keep praying for Makenzie to be healed, for her miracle.
