I was in the hospital a week that first time I got antibody. It was one of the hardest weeks I ever had in the hospital so I was not excited to have to do it a bunch more times. I was so glad to be home but the thing was, I had to start …
Spring 2013
After radiation we finally got to go home. The doctors said my body needed a break before we did the rest of my treatments so we got to stay home for a whole month. Well, we still had to go to the hospital for labs and stuff but we didn't have to spend the night. …

I don't remember much about stem cell. I was in the hospital for two months and could never leave the room. I had a pump with a button I could push when I had pain. It made me super tired but I had pain all the time so I pushed it whenever I could. The …

We got to stay home for Christmas a whole week. I got so many presents - some from my family and some from people I didn't even know. I got to play in the snow and see all my animals but the best part was all four of us being in our own house together. …
