Saturday Night

I hate to disappoint everyone. I know how many fans Leah has but it is now a little after 7 on Saturday night and I, Illana, just arrived at the hospital to find Leah not nearly as perky as I was hoping to find her. She's not up to writing now so I told her that I'd just give her fan club a quick update. As I write, she's receiving her last chemo. I think the chemo's finally starting to do what it's supposed to. She had to receive two units of blood today because her blood counts dropped. She's nauseaus, fatigue ...etc.

Hopefully, she'll feel better tomorrow and be able to update you.

Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes.

Love,
illana

  5. Just hung up the phone with Ari. He davened Mussaf for the Amud today for the first time ever, and Birkat HaChodesh no less. He had Leah Rivka Bat Yehudit Chana in mind, and a tehillim group in Baltimore is now davening for Leah as well. As the light of Chanuka approaches, we're looking forward to a quick and complete refua and seeing Leah's smiling face on this blog real soon.
