Our little warrior princess

Same princess,  new battle;

Hello FB Family and Friends! I wish this was a brilliant post and was hoping for this time to be an exciting time for Mia and our family.

For the past month we have been going through the wringer with Mia. Unfortunately her RTS (Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome) has caught up with her and Mia has been diagnosed with a Bone Sarcoma or Cancer in her left leg. The leg that was amputated. As if this little warrior hasn't been through enough the next few months are about to get rocky again.

Today we have been admitted into the hospital to begin chemo. It is going to be 2 rounds over a 10 week period, then surgery with more amputation a possibility and then after that more chemo. This first hospital stay is to last about 5 days. Then go home and come back after a few weeks. At least that's what I understand so far with this road map and treatment plan. Still so confusing. The doctors feel that we have caught this in the very beginning stages and the success rate is very high. Her scans have come back clear and only cancer is located in her leg.

We have been in a weirdly stressful numb bubble and emotions are very high. Of course my little Warrior is stronger than us mere parents but she is willing to do what is necessary and fight off this Purple Pickle. (that's what we call it instead of the C word).

So again we are asking for your support, prayers, love, good juju, positive vibes, and anything else I can't seem to name. Given this sensitive time and the great unknown of treatments and side effects we ask that there be no visitors at the hospital right now.

As I've said before Mia belongs to all of you but this time I'm going to hold her a little closer to the chest this time around. Please forgive any short comings that might come out during this crazy medical vortex we've been sucked into yet again. It may seem like I have the words but I'm truly at a loss right now.

Thank you to you all.
With love,
T.
