Hello Everyone,

Sorry it has been so long since I have given an update on Alicia. All is well here. Alicia is doing just fine, she is getting over a cold and a terible cough, but her counts are staying the same.

We had an awesome Christmas. Alicia got so many Dora Dolls, Dora is her favorite. She loves to open presents.
After we were done opening presents on Christmas morning I was taking a shower and erika was cooking breakfast and Alicia decided since there were still presents under the tree, that she would finish opening them, so I had to rewrap all the presents that went to Grandmas house. We all laughed so hard, Alicia just didnt understand.

We really did have a good Christmas. My boss gave me a cruise to Jaimaca, I am so excited. I am going in March and then we are going to make the big move to Cinncinnatti.

I will keep everyone updated on Alicia. Hope all is well with everyone.

Hello everyone,

Sorry it has been so long since I have updated on Alicia. Everything is going well. Alicia turned Three Friday. She is getting to be such a Big Little girl. We hired a Clown for her party and she loved it. His name was Sparkles and he did a real good job entertaining the 17 chldren that were there.

We are still planning to move to Cinncinnatti. We are going to wait till after the first of the year, so we can spend the Holidays with our family.

Alicia's counts have stayed the same. She just got over a Cold so her Platelets are low but that is expected.

I hope everyone is doing well, and I wish everyone a Happy Holidays.

Michelle

Hi Michelle and Alicia....Johanna had her BMT in Cincinnati and just yesterday, at her doctor's appointment here in Fl, she said she missed Cincinnati. The nurses and doctors were very supportive and always indulging her. We were very pleased. I spent 3-1/2 months there and might have some insight into the area...if you need it.

I just wanted to post a note to your website. My daughter, Erin, is an FA patient that is recovering from a bone marrow transplant she had this past May in Minneapolis, MN. She is 8 years old, and was diagnosed with Fanconi Anemia in September of 2003. We live in the Greater Cincinnati area, and if we can help your family as you navigate the BMT "waters" here -- we would be happy to do so (oh/erinmckee). Best of luck to you, and we will be praying for your family, and your upcoming move to Cincinnati.

October 2, 2005

Hello to everyone,

Sorry its been so long since I updated everyone on Alicia. Everything is going well with us. Alicia counts are staying the same, we got her CBC counts back last week, her platelets are at 71,000. She's just getting over a cold but besides that she's doing really well.

We are trying to make arrangements to move to Cinncinnatti, Ohio. I want her to be able to get the best medical treatment possible. The Doctors here are wonderful, Dr Reddy, her Pediatrician is a Awesome Doctor, but The team of specialist in Cinncinnatti know so much more about FA. So right now I am trying to figure out a way to afford to make such a big move, I'm a single mother like my daughter Erika and our finances are kinda tight, but my goal right now is to have Alicia close to the Doctors in Cinncinnatti. I know the lord is on our side and everything will work out.

I am sorry again for such the long period between updates, and I will try harder to make them more frequent.

Your friend
Michelle

Hello there Alicia and Michelle,
I am so relieved to hear that you had no bleeding in your head at all!! And what a brave girl you are. Don't worry about being scared at the hospital. I have the same disease as you have....Fanconi Anaemia.....and when I go to then hospital and have blood taken....they have to stick me a lot too!! And I don't like it....I even do a LOT of complaining!! And I am 27 years old!! HAHA. I used to use emla cream when I was little like you. It helped. I am glad that your platelet count came up and I rejoice with you.
You are such a sweetie,

Knoxville, TN - Wednesday, July 13, 2005 11:58 PM CDT

I'm glad she is doing better. Poor baby!! I can't believe it took so many sticks! Emma has had difficulties before too, but not that many. It's a very stressful time. In case something like that ever happens again (where she needs medical treatment), they can give her Versed which is a calming drug that makes them less anxious and relaxes them. We have them give it to Emma before her biopsies before they try to put an IV in. If I'm remembering right, it also helps them to not remember. We've only used it times when they are going to be putting her to sleep anyway.

Also, I'm not sure if you know (we didn't know this until last October), you can use Emla cream. It will numb the arm and make pokes less painful for the little one. I know in this case, it wasn't something you could really plan for. Just thought I'd mention it for her regular blood draws. Glad she is doing better. I can imagine you would all be worn out! Great to hear her platelets are going up.

Take care,
Teresa

Oh, poor baby girl! What a scary experience. I'm sure with some encouragment and maybe a lollipop Alicia will come to forgive your sister. That was nice that she was the "bad guy" when things got tough. I always make my husband do it if he is there. I'm so glad her platelets are going up and she's okay. See you soon at camp :0)

Hello Alicia, Michelle and Erika,
I'm so sorry about Alicia's accident.
I read about it this morning when I checked my
email from you. My nanny is in the hospital too.
We had to take her on Friday night. I pray that
Alicia is better and there are no problems. Give
her a hug from me. Love, Rose

Greetings Alicia, Michelle and Erika,
I have been praying for you all, especially for Alicia. I was hoping to see if there was an update on her fall where she landed on her head. I pray that all is going well and that she is still ok. Bless you all and love you.

Hello My Special Friends,
I'm praying for Alicia's counts and many
of my friends are too. Yesterday I was knitting
with the women at the retirement home. I've talked
about Alicia many times to the women. This morning
the activity director called me and asked me to
tell you they are all praying for Alicia.
As soon as I walk into the room there
someone always asks me, how is
our little Alicia doing. You have many friends
that you don't even know praying for Alicia.
I love you all very much. Hugs, Rose

Counts, go back up!! Stop worrying people like this! I hope that her counts rise soon. I'm not even close to an expert when it comes to things like that, but I know it must worry you guys. Please email me if you need to vent at all. You'll be in our thoughts and prayers. Can't wait to meet you guys in person:-) Oh, do you know what Alicia's complementation group is?

See you at camp,
