Shoshana Is Four

Life continues to happen around here.  Shoshana's original birthday party had to be postponed because she came down with a case of shingles and spent a week (including her birthday) in the hospital.

The "maintenance" phase of Shoshana's chemo has been otherwise blessedly uneventful.  We are now working with a new home care nursing agency, and they more able to fill the shifts, although they are still spinning up the day shift, and we have had a few nights without a nurse.

We held Shoshana's party this weekend.  Elizabeth wrote a post about the party on the farm blog.

Meanwhile, the girls got to be in a friend's wedding, and their new baby cousin was born!

The night nurse decorated Shoshana's room while she slept.

Mint!

This was the rehearsal.  I was too busy to take pictures during the wedding.

There's that tongue...

...and then this happened.

Shoshana's Leukemia Journey So Far

Welcome.

I created this blog so that our story with Shoshana and her Leukemia diagnosis could be told uninterrupted by other life events that will inevitably occur, and be discussed on my main blog (or my more techy blog), and also as a space to allow other authors, such as my wife Elizabeth, to write posts from time to time.

Here are the previous blog entries that I have posted on my other blog:

• [8/16/2012] Shoshana: Leukemia Thus Far,  and Ahead
• [8/22/2012] Shoshana: Outpatient
• [9/1/2012] Shoshana: Induction Chemotherapy
• [9/10/2012] Still Waters
• [9/22/2012] Shoshana: Respiratory Failure
• [10/11/2012] Shoshana: Intensive Care

There is also a post I wrote to introduce this blog: Shoshana: New Blog

As you can see, I've been posting a comprehensive summary every two weeks or so, as best I can.  I intend to continue to do that, as well as fill in the gaps with shorter content.  I may occasionally link from here to posts on other blogs, or content on other social networks, but I will try to maintain this as a cohesive whole.
