I finally got the call today that Eva's test results were NORMAL!
YIIIIIPPPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
So, what does that mean?
Well, basically, she still has this 1cm mass in her. We don't know what that is. What they suspect, however, is that it is NOT the return of her neuroblastoma.
That, my friends, I'll take.
They are doing another ct on July 2 to determine whether or not the mass has grown, shrunk, or gone away. Then, we will get the results of the test on the 7th.
That will determine what our treatment, if any, will be. If it has grown, we might have to do surgery or chemo or whatever. There are many, many, ifs.
So, we are not out of the woods but we can certainly breathe for a bit.
Here's the other bit of great news. I have declared July 1st to be a new year. We have had such crap happen in the first half of the year, on July 1, we will begin year 2008.5. Only good things can happen in 2008.5. Thus, Eva's CT will be ok, as it is on the 2nd day of 2008.5.
Get your champagne and party hats out!
I just want to say a THANK YOU to so many of you who have held your breath with us over this week/whole ordeal. Honestly, today, I was so beat down with not knowing. We are so fortunate to have so many people who love and support us and carry us when we are just wandering about. Although, I am terrible at thank you notes, I cannot express enough how much all your concern helps get us through.
Here's a little shot of Eva so you can see for whom you are all praying!

Thank goodness (that noise you are hearing is my huge sigh of relief!) I have been bouncing back and forth from your blog to Facebook awaiting your news!!!!
I am so relieved for you, and most especially for Eva! I will continue sending good thoughts your way for the next CT scan!
Awesome news! You have a great attitude through all of this. Can't even imagine sweating out that phone call. Go out and buy yourself the best new frickin washing machine ever to celebrate the New Half Year...
Good News!!! (You don't know me. I'm a friend of January's. But I have been following you and Eva for awhile. Just to let you know that somebody in Salt Lake City is thinking about you!) {{Hugs}}
Anxiously awaiting New Years Day .5!
I am happy and relieved!...and thankful! A new year sounds wonderful...I will begin thinking of a toast to how much better the "new year" will be!...and I have to go with Kristin...go buy a new washer! The front loaders are the deal!
God is good! I am so thankful to hear the news. You are such a "trooper," and like your mother, not given over to B&M sessions that I schedule regularly. Keep us posted.
Woohoo! I am so happy that things are okay. Saying lots of prayers for your next CT scan.
