Mackenzie Update
Courtney gave an update on Mackenzie after devastating news that Mackenzie has relapsed:
We have chosen to do a trial with the goal of prolonging life while also maintaining quality. Tomorrow she will be having surgery to place an ommaya reservoir in her head that delivers chemo directly into the CSF (cerebral spinal fluid), as well as having her port placed back in her chest for chemo to be delivered this way. In addition, she will begin having daily chemo orally. The goal is to basically keep chemo drugs in Mackenzie 24/7 to fight the disease and stop further spreading at this time.
Our girl is by far the kindest, bravest soul we will ever have the privilege of knowing. She handles everything with grace and strength. May she be blessed in this next season of life with so much love.
