I don't really have a lot to update about Ambrosia. She is still getting her antibiotics for her infection every 6 hours. She's doing just fine and being her normal playful self!
I thought I would post about the generosity of others we've received since her initial diagnosis and our subsequent hospital stays. After our initial diagnosis, family and friends were more than willing to help us in any way they could. A lot of people have made monetary donations to help us stay current on bills, which has been extremely helpful. I was already unemployed when Ambrosia was diagnosed, but the discovery of her cancer made it impossible for me to be able to work. Taking care of her has become my job.
Every Thursday in the hospital, a cart full of toys is brought around for the patients to pick one from. Ambrosia has received a couple of toys this way. Beyond that this month we have gotten several deliveries of toys from various groups and volunteers. There have been police officers, listeners of a radio station WAMZ, UofL Athletes, the Isaiah Alonso Foundation, The Lily Grace Project, and some from people who haven't been identified. These donations are so welcome and nice to receive. Ambrosia is usually so intrigued by everything even at such a young age.
To those who have donated their time and money we truly appreciate everything that has been and is being done for us. It definitely helps brighten our days to know there are so many kindhearted people out there in the world. I hope to return the favor when all of our treatments are complete and give back to the families here at Kosair's.
