Even though most of the posts are written by DMM this is @Chef_lucien, Gg & Isa's papa. Here he holds Isa in April 2008, pre-leukemia. This is the man that keeps it all running around here. The girls and I adore him.

Looks like we’re going to do the same protocol in 4 weeks…except no IT MX on day 36–only on day 1 and 29.
I am terrified of DI. We are only going through it once, so I know I should count myself blessed. I will be watching and praying and sending all the good thoughts I can to you, Isa, Gg and Papa.
My advice: keep a bag packed for the hospital of the stuff that you might need. Consider pre-treating for blood products. Remember that a fever could be VERY serious. or just a pain because it requires cultures to be drawn. Keep her healthy. Keep her hydrated. I am nervous and we have already done it.
