Good News is Still GOOD!!!

We got Madelyn's VMA and HVA back Wednesday and they were at the level they were before March. This indicates a temporary increase due to increased Tylenol intake during her March while she was frequently sick and teething. Had it still been elevated, we would have been left wondering why but now with the MIBG results, we can sleep well for a while knowing this was just an anomaly.

Now we know to monitor her consumption of things that will increase VMA/HVA levels and try to take the results in stride.

Kaitlyn has been ROCKIN the softball field. She has frequently been the leading hitter for her high school varsity team (Carolina Forest) and tonight they won in the first round of the playoffs. Last week, KB played a brilliant game against Myrtle Beach where she went......

5 for 5 with 8 RBIs and she HIT FOR THE CYCLE. The HR of the cycle was a 3 run walk-off.

WHOA!!!!!

She has moved up to leadoff hitter from earlier in the season being pinch hit for. Her grades are OK (could be better), but she's doing a pretty good job of balancing her heavy softball schedule with school. We are VERY VERY proud of her. This weekend they travel to Graniteville (near Aiken) to play the #2 team in the state, Midland Valley. Our hope is the girls have some fun and play to their potential and as well as they've played together in the last 7 games, they have a shot.

Well, thanks for checking in and keeping up with our saga...
