Hattie's Cancer Journey

My daughter Hattie was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma in July 2013 when she was 16 months old. After about a year and a half of chemotherapy, radiation and multiple surgeries, she was declared cancer free in December 2014. I'm posting a photo and short reflection every day in 2015 to celebrate the end of treatment and reflect on the journey.

20. 8/7/2013 - First chemo pt. 4.

We were in the hospital the next day until the IV fluids were done in the late afternoon. I remember it being a much nicer day than the previous one. We had ice cream, read stories and climbed on everything within reach. We were definitely ready to head home and go to bed early when it was all done.
