A note from Amy:
 
At the hospital and things just got painfully real. I have WAY too much baggage attached to these feelings. Flashbacks are digging the pit in my stomach even deeper. Lexie's surgery was postponed until 1:30 3:15 because they needed the OR for an emergent surgery. Pray for the family and child who took Lexie's spot in the OR. God knows their needs. 
 
Saw our oncologist briefly to sign consents for her spinal and bone marrow. He didn't have time to chat but I did ask about protocol. Sounds like they will have her on a "Very High Risk" category of protocol. That was NOT the news we were hoping for. She will get chemo pushed into her spinal fluid today and start IV chemo tomorrow. This just sucks! But somehow God always gives us the capacity to laugh and have fun together even in the midst of horrible situations. 
 
I'm banking on him to show up with His mercy and grace just as He ALWAYS has! Please pray for peace and comfort for Lex, as well as all the girls. Specifically on our knees today for clean bone marrow and clean spinal fluid. Also, storming the gates of heaven that the spinal chemo does not make Lexie sick. I'm not ready for the side effects and either is she. 
 
Love you all so much! 
 
Putting my phone down to spend time with Lexie now, but anxious to read all your messages when she is in surgery. Her surgery will be about 2 hours. I'll let you know if OR time changes again. Please pray... He hears and your prayers are powerful! #LettiStrong
