Good news!

From what I understand, Lista and Tishie actually both just got good news! They both still have a long road ahead of them, but it's the first time since either of them got sick that there was much hope. Tishie's counts have been either too high or too low, so she hasn't qualified for a stem cell transplant, but they started a new medicine and it is actually chemo and it's working, so we're hoping maybe she can have the transplant this summer sometime. The other medicine they started her on didn't work. Lista didn't have much hope at all because they hadn't found treatment that worked on anybody. They just found someone with another kind of sarcoma and used an experimental drug that killed all of the tumors, so they are going to try that on Lista in 3 weeks! Pretty exciting! Thanks for your prayers!!! (keep it up)
