April.....YEA!!!!!!!!!  Very encouraging news!  Remember she had that bad reaction to the strong chemo so maybe this response to the antibiotic is along those lines.   At least that is what we are praying for!!!!!  So very happy that you guys will have a few days of less worry to enjoy.

Always thinking of you, our niece, and your entire family...praying for God to continue to bless you richly and provide strength when you most need it.  You are amazingly strong and your family is so fortunate to have you keeping things on an even keel even when clouds appear on the horizon.  So far, so good, really, in this journey....just a few dips in the road along the way.  (((HUGS)))   xxx ooo

Good Thursday morning everyone....
I must apologize for my absence yesterday...took my DIL with two grandchildren (Kaleb was at school) to Walmart to get some groceries (pending the arriving snow storm we are suppose to get) which there were way to many "crazy" storm shoppers...  Then got home and we were having internet trouble so my SIL had to order a new router so we could get better connection between all the devices we have in the house...(way to many)  Then I fell asleep...LOL 

I do see there was some WONDERFUL news from April...
I am so happy for our niece and you April...still sending hugs and prayers that Monday will bring good news too!!!

Let me see if I can catch up on the news.....
