From the previous post, obviously it was a great day. By no means is our fight against the leukemia over, but it was a great step along the way - now hopefully it doesn't come back in upcoming tests as her body tries to build good red and white blood cells and platelets without the leukemia cells.
We celebrated with a few games of connect four and an episode of Entourage - season 3 - good stuff.
Hillary's appetite continues to improve. Breakfast was the standard egg and pancake. For lunch, Hillary ate almost all of her cheese pizza, and for dinner, after the our standard mac and cheese and tater tots getting overruled, she ended up with a make-it-yourself egg salad sandwich - she was given two pieces of bread, two hard boiled eggs, and a little mayo. It was more fun watching Hillary make the sandwich, but she ate it all - I think the first time she's cleaned her plate here.
I attached a few pictures - One with the mask Hillary 'gets' to wear when we go for our walks - she sounds like Darth Vader when she talks with it on. I also added a picture of Hillary with the haircut halfway done - unfortunately I didn't have one with the final buzz - but I'll try to upload one tomorrow.
Margie is keeping her company tonight - hopefully they're getting some good sleep.

She is so beautiful.
What a darling you are, Hillary!
Sending lots of love your way each and every day.
OK, I think that a couple, perhaps more challenging mental games were included in the basket--what's with all the connect 4?? Maybe next time we'll bring candyland?
This is all great news, guys. Keep it coming!

Nice hair! Short hair is definitely the way to go.
Oh, and next time we visit, we'll bring Bingo.
See you soon!

You're a beautiful girl inside and out regardless of the length of your hair. Glad to hear you are doing well and we'll see you soon.
Pink is definitely your color Hillary! From the mask to the phone :)
You will no doubt look adorable with the new do!
