Wednesday - December 3

Tomorrow is my last radiation treatment - YAY! Then I have one more MRI for 2 hours - yuck. But at least I get to sleep through it. Dad and my sister Kaitlynn are going home tomorrow and they are taking a LOT of my stuff with them. On Friday I have a couple of appointments at the hospital and then I get to leave here at 3pm. I am Finally on my way home. Thank you to everybody for praying for me and visiting and doing all the stuff you did to help me get better!
Love,
Bree

Note from Parents:

Brianna has made it to her last radiation treatment. 8:30 AM will be treatment #30 and she will then follow up with another 2 hour MRI. We will also meet with the doctors tomorrow to finalize any/all paperwork and discuss all that we have coming up with the future treatment and visits. Everything looks good but we are a little concerned that her EKG score is once again above 450. The last 3 EKG test are 460 or higher. Still normal for her age, but the drug company in charge of the protocol wants the number to be under 450. Please pray that tomorrow and/or Friday's EKG is below 450. We don't want anything to hold us up from making it home Friday night!! We don't know if this would hold us back, but we would feel better knowing that the score is back in range for the protocol. We are sure the doctor visit will provide us with more insight.
Matt and Kaitlyn will be heading home tomorrow morning. Of course we are sending as much stuff home as possible yet still leaving enough to get by for two more days. We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow and we even have an appointment or two Friday morning. We called for a shuttle to pick us up at 3 PM.
Thank you for all of your kindness and generosity! Hopefully, this is one of the last updates we type from the RMH. We will continue to keep you posted and appreciate your continued prayers! God Bless!
