Emmy's Story Archive

In other news, during the last visit to Children's Hospital Colorado where Emmy had a big chemo treatment she was also intubated for a new CT and MRI. This was to take a look at her tumor site checking for regrowth but also to see an image of her chest which is where this particular type of cancer would go next if continuing to spread. We are ecstatic to report that all scans came back clear and the good people on our care team are not seeing any indications of cancer!

They told us right at the beginning of this whole thing, that it would happen. It was said that somewhere along this journey that Emmy would get sick enough to be transported to Denver via ambulance. We've gotten close to the line a few times but have always been able head home from the Vail Valley Medical Center ER without taking it any further. This time, as you might have guessed, was different.

...little Miss Emmy's condition as been improving at a pretty fixed pace. The girl quietly napping in the crib next to us is a completely different girl from the one who was rushed down here in the back of an ambulance a few days ago. Pale, fragile, feverish, and sickly was how she arrived but as of this morning she is most definitely feeling more like herself.
