Her mom came today!!! The little girl who has been living in oncology without any family for 5 months finally got to go home today! I went up to oncology and got the story from the nurses. Her mom had trouble getting to the hospital last week because of money, but eventually she pulled enough together to make the trip down here. They live way up north, so it's a good two days of traveling. She came into oncology and at first her daughter didn't recognize her. I guess that's what happens when a four year old hasn't seen her mother in 5 months, but also the mom was pregnant when she left and now she's had the baby, so that's a big change too. However, once the girl realized that that was her mom, apparently she wouldn't talk with anybody else. The second best part to this story is that the mom wants her to continue to get treatment! The girl still needs to go to the DR to get radiation therapy and I guess they're going to make it happen. There always could be things that go wrong of course, but at least her mom wants to continue her treatment. Good. Stuff.
Also our office got finished this morning! And our new employee started today and so far everything is going great! I'm going to go have a glass of wine and enjoy having things go so well today!
