Emily escapes another transfusion.
Emily went in for labs today, and while her levels had dropped since Friday, she still didn't need a transfusion. Everyone was pretty amazed, Tracy, myself, Emily, and the doctors expected one. It took a while to get the results, but Emily was in school by noon and finished the rest of the day. Tonight and tomorrow she will take her last 6TG pills, and then will officially be done with phase 4. She still needs to be watched for possible transfusions as there is a delayed reaction to some of the medications she is on. We are excited that it is looking like she will be recovered and feeling great on her 7th birthday which is coming up on October 30th.

Hi Emily -
Wow - no transfusion. That's wonderful. You have surprised everyone again. Grampa called and said he had a great visit with you today. Wish I could have been there. I loved the pictures on the blog of you and Haley at the beach and the pumpkin patch. Looks like fun. Love you so much.

This is awesome news. Way to go Emily! I know everyone is happy to have you back at school. I love the pictures from the past weekend. It looks like you had a great time at the pumpkin patch. Did you pick out a big pumpkin to carve? Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Love,
mrs. breit
Hooray Emily! That is great!
