We're back from the hospital!
Joli did great this round of chemotherapy. The first day was a little hard -- she threw up a lot! After that, though, she was bubbly, lively, and keeping the nurses and doctors on their toes. Poor Jorge stayed both nights at the hospital on a rather uncomfortable pull out chair, but he did meet a new fishing buddy (a parent at the hospital)! Joli is home now and has lots of energy (a big difference from the first round of chemo). Grammy Eva bought her a little grand piano and tons of toys. So far so good! We also have some anti-nausea medication that we've already started to give her. We think the rest of her hair will fall out this round.

On a really cool "note", Tita Grace ordered a special song for Joli through a non-profit organization called Songs of Love (www.songsoflove.org). They are a group of song writers who create personalized songs for children with serious illnesses. I'm having trouble linking the music to the blog, but hopefully we can figure it out soon!
