So Héloïse did come home again after a few days, and she even started walking again (kinda.) But then last Tuesday, when she entered hospital for her last perfusion of chemotherapy, her foot had got worse.
This foot looked like a side issue so far, something that was getting back in order and was under control. It now appears that we need to keep and eye on it as it may take time to cure and will bother us until the chemotherapy ends and Héloïse recovers her natural defenses.
Still, the doctors are not overly worried and the infection is not big, so chemotherapy shall resume very soon and hopefully we will soon enter phase 3. Also, Héloïse seems to be doing OK fighting the Leukemia, so we keep our hopes high!
It was never going to be easy. If it does not worsen, this will hopefully soon be just a bad memory…
On a side note, this site is now open for registration, so feel free to post comments/questions!
Hervé, thanks for all these updates. I keep looking at them to avoid asking you guys directly, so this is really useful and probably keeps you from telling the same story all over. I’m keeping quiet, but of course if there is anything I can do just let me know. I really hope she gets better as soon as possible. Héloïse deserves to spend her time doing what a kid does at her age. Take care.
