They let us out today -- Dayssi was released from the hospital and 3 carloads later Dad, Mom, India, Dayssi, Dawn, and all of the loot we've acquired from generous friends and family are at HOME! Dayssi's first words were " I want to go upstairs. I think my crib is up there."
She feels really good today and has been in a great mood, flirting like crazy, cracking jokes, and sparkling like her silly self.
We still have our nighttime meds ahead of us -- but Daddy bought some chocolate syrup. Fingers crossed.
Tomorrow we are back at the hospital for another bone marrow biopsy to see how well the drugs are working, and another lumbar puncture to get some more chemo into her spinal column, which they mercifully have scheduled while she is under general anesthesia.
Thanks everyone for the great messages and positive thoughts, prayers, wishes, etc. We feel it.

Well actually we made break for it...
Also, the doctor said that part of the reason was that she was responding "exceptionally well to the treatment."
On the downside there is a new "yucky medicine" that is apparently worse than dexamethasone.
Aha! That's where the billions of dollars in pharmaceutical research went.
What wonderful news! Home, sweet, home!
Love to you all.
