Well her counts where basically no existant as far as platelets so she is bruising badly. Meaning when she got for her daily shot bruised her entire arm. Her white cells are not alot better. So the camp started Monday, we had to take Steph up for blood, left to do that at 12 noon, finally got it done around 7:00PM. Then shocking us the doctor said take her to the camp. They said it is fully staffed with doctors and a medical facility and it would be better for her to be there than home for the week. So off to camp she went, got there around midnight and back to house around 2:30.
So we are not allowed to call her since they want the kids just to have fun. We did send a fax telling her we love her. I drive up with her brother Saturday morning to get her. Can't wait to hear about the week. She has never been to any kind of camp or anything like this ever. Hope she has fun.

Sounds like a fun camp. Im sure she'll have great time, and she will probably come back in better physical condition then when she left. You'd be surprised at how much some fresh air, a relaxing environment and some fun can help with your health!
I hope and pray everything works out!!
