Chemo done early.

Steph and Mama Pham went to LA this morning for the Monday chemo refill and the team said no more chemo, they are going to give her the chemo break early on day 10! (Normally 14 continuous days on, then 14 days off = 1 chemo cycle.) Her numbers are low, so they are going to let her body rest. They are hopeful however that the medicine is showing signs of it working. The doctors also ordered her to get a blood transfusion as her hemoglobin levels are dangerously low. This afternoon after the appointment, they drove directly to the ER in San Diego for the transfusion. It's been a long day for Steph and Mama Pham, they are tired but are in good spirits.

Please pray that Mama Pham's hemoglobin levels stabilize, that the cancer has stopped growing, and that during this two week break that Mama Pham gets some much needed healing rest!
