Two More Rounds
The response back from Trey's doctors is to continue on with 2 more rounds of chemo. She came to this recommendation after consulting with other COG docs and they feel that with a 98% success rate with 4 rounds it makes the most sense to finish out the full 4 cycles. They do not have a good way of identifying those kids that are "good" with only 2 cycles and those that need 4. Surgery is not the recommendation at this time mostly due to the potential long term effects of spinal surgery on such a little guy. Trey will be admitted to Strong on September 8th for his 3rd round of chemo. This round takes 3 days to administer the medications so Tim and I will be chasing the little guy around 4-3600 next week. One medication requires Trey to be connected to a blood pressure machine while it is administered adding yet another moving part to the equation. Should be interesting. The journey continues. Lots and Lots of positive vibes and prayers for little Trey that he remains strong trough these next two (and hopefully last two) rounds. He is our little trooper!
