Sad News

I am sorry to have been away for so long on the updates. Somehow I just did not have it in my heart to type these words. But because so many people have asked about Kyla I need to let you all know how things are going. Since my last update another MRI was done and after sending the scans to UCSF, we received the sad news that the treatments were not working and that the cancer has now spread across the midline and is inoperable. Kyla was given the option of continuing with chemo which is not helping or to stop and try to have quality time with what she has left. She chose the quality time.

So the last several weeks have been a whirlwind of setting up hospice and making decisions. Kyla has such a positive outlook and is at peace with where she is. The only thing that worries her she says is telling Emma. We are working with hospice and social workers on that so I know God will give us the grace to work through this. Aside from the horrible side effects of the Decadron, she feels well. She is having a few problems with her memory but is not in pain. She wants everyone to know how much she loves them and appreciates all that has been done for her these past 4 years. So for now, we are taking each day and loving her.
