ALICIA'S JOURNEY WITH FA

Welcome to our blog where we try to keep family & friends updated on our daughter/granddaughter, Alicia, who is one of the most adorable five year olds ever! She was born with a very rare & aggressive disease, called Fanconi anemia, which causes bone marrow failure, as well as different cancers . She is currently undergoing a bone marrow transplant to try to cure her bone marrow issues. If you'd like to gain a little more background, please visit our first entry HERE.

September 5, 2007

We finally heard from Cincinnati with Alicia's results and there is no change. (THAT IS GOOD NEWS!!!!!)

Her blast count was at 1%, which it went down from 3% at her last biopsy.

Her Platelet count is still low, it was at 26,000, but he rest of her counts looked good.

I am sooooo relieved. They still want to do another biopsy in 3 months, hopefully that one is good like this one so we can go to every 6 months, little Alicia is getting upset even more every time we have to have one.

Anshon is doing well, he is getting so big, he is saying dada now, Erika keeps trying to get him to say mama but he hasn't said it so far. He giggles every time Alicia is around him, it is so much fun watching them two together.

Thank you all so much for keeping Alicia in your prayers, it means the world to us.
