Just finishing another stage

It's been a while since last time we wrote... but these past weeks were kind of busy, Sunday March 25 we noticed Brianna was shedding a lot of hair, that same day by noon the whole front was gone and trying not to make Brianna worried or scared, mommy braided whatever was left of her hair. Later that nigth we were doing some hand painting with the kids, and when we were about to get ready for bed, Brianna went upstairs to put pajamas on, we were going upstairs and she came out of her room without her braids, we asked her where they were but she just said "no hair" her whole hair was gone in just one day, we had a hard time seeing this happening to our little princess, but she was ok with it, Tuesday March 27 she started having a fever and we decided to take her to the clinic, the doctors said they had to keep her over night for observation and just to make sure she didn't have anything that can be dangerous since her antibodies were way to low. Brianna stayed there for 3 days, Saturday March 31, she finally got out of the hospital once they noticed she was better. And just on time for general conference, we were able to feel the Spirit and we found a lot of peace and counseling through the words of living prophets. Tuesday April 3, Bri got another Chemo treatment but it was dependent if her antibodies were high enough and she was more than ready for another round. Thats how she started her second round of Delay intensification. Her little body is just amazing, it keeps fighting and fighting, last week Apr. 10,she got another Chemo treatment at the clinic and 3 more days at home. And this week is going to be the same, the only difference is that yesterday she needed blood transfusion, her red blood cells are low, which is normal at this part of her treatment, the doctors said she has been doing so good and they are surprised she didn't need it before. but this is pretty much the end of this stage and she has a break for 3 weeks if everything else goes ok.

 Well Brianna has amazed the doctors in many ways but we can tell that she is not fighting alone, She is in our Heavenly Father hands, she is doing good because there is a lot of people praying for her, and the most touching part there is a lot of other kids that pray for her health even when they don't understand everything, we just know they have the most pure and sincere hearts, we feel so grateful for them and for their families. We just can not find a way to say thanks to all the people that keep praying and watching over us, specially the dinners that come over to our house every time we have to be here at the hospital or the yummy cookies,cupcakes, food, etc. every little thing we receive from friends and family we really love and appreciate it.

A funny question was asked last week was when does she get tired? and the answer is Brianna really hasn't looked like a sick kid, she plays, eats, watches T.V and even fights with her brothers like any other kid...she has learned to take medicines, to be around nurses and doctors and now she gets exited when she sees someone without hair, because she relizes she is not the only one , she is a very smart girl, and we truly believe Our Father in Heaven knew that she was ready to handle this trial in her life, and our life has changed too but we know He trusted us enough as parents to send us such a special girl  and we feel so humble and grateful because we feel the blessings from heaven. Please keep praying for Bri and for all the other kids that have to go through sickness, so hard to see them suffer.

 Thank you so much everyone for all you do for us, we just want you to know that, we are praying for you as well.
