The plan

We had an appointment with her doctor and they want to do chemo again. They are going to do a more aggressive chemo to get what ever it is they see on her other kidney they want to make sure they kill all of her cancer cells because she is down to one kidney! She has to be admitted for five days and have chemo all five days she will have two one hour sessions each day and they have to constantly be monitoring her because this is some strong stuff if Jessi does okay we will probably get to come home but if she doesn't we will have to stay longer. Jessi has to build up her blood counts to be ready for her next treatment which will be every third week. She then goes for three days of chemo. We are looking at six months of this. Hoping she stays healthy so it doesnt get prolonged.Please keep her in your prayers and don't forget to come see her that is what is going to keep her going make sure your not sick. I have to stop working for a while and that kills me because these kids I watch are Jessi's friends and she loves them and they love her.They have also become our family.Jessi is scheduled to go in on Sunday December 30th at 7:00pm. They want to hydrate her all night before they start chemo in the morning. Jessi has a little cough so hopfully that doesnt effect her and delays it.I will keep you updated and have a happy New Year!
