Yippee!!!!

Gracie does not have GVHD!!!!!! Thank you, God!

The biopsy did confirm that she does have eczema which we had already assumed.

The plan is to begin tapering the CSA medicine starting on 4/15, Tax Day. I am so excited. It will be a slow taper because the CSA helps the eczema too and we'd like to keep from having a big flare up.

This is wonderful news and we are just so pleased that our little trooper has taken yet another big step forward. Go Gracie!!!!

We're rejoicing in Arvada, Colorado. Really great news! Hope the taper goes well so CSA will be something of the past. Hey, we'd love to see a photo of our little Gracie. Is her hair all grown out? Piggy tails yet? :)

yes, I do owe a few photos for our friends who don't see us so often. We'll see what we can do.

Great news! We are soo glad to see that she continues to make progress. Also, trust us Morgan has eczema and compared to what you have been through it will be nothing. The trick is just to always take care of her skin, the minute you stop she will have a flare up. Keep updating. We love to hear the good news!

James, Michelle, and Morgan
