This week my mom, sister Amanda and niece Allie headed back to New York on Monday.
Tuesday Allie had her check up with the doctor who said that her tumor has shrunk by more than half!!
Today, Wednesday, Allie had her second direct chemo treatment and it went well.
As a quick recap.
-Allie was diagnosed August 23rd, 2011 with retinoblastoma
-She is being treated by 1 of only 5 doctors in the US that specializes in retinoblastoma. (Located in New York)
-She is receiving chemo directly into the tumor inside of her eye. If every treatment goes well she should have no side effects as you with systemic chemo.
-Her first treatment was September 15th, 2011.
