Bucket List

It's been a crazy busy week. We finally started Bree's new chemo protocol. We had her irinotecan on Wednesday. This one attacks the cancer cells in a different way than the temodar did. Hopefully it'll be more effective than the temodar. We didn't start the avastin till Friday because it was taking forever to get approved by our insurance. The avastin costs more than our house and this one attacks the capillaries. Hopefully it'll starve the tumor by killing its source of nutrition, her capillaries.
Cory and I put together a bucket list of things to do with Brylee. We created this list with the hopes that it would distract us from the horrible news that her tumor is growing and at the same time create unforgettable memories of our little girl. We put some outrageous things on there as well as easy to accomplish things. Everything from making handprints to riding in a hit air balloon. We are feeling extremely blessed and thankful to the Children and the Earth foundation and our friend Sara who have been promoting Bree's bucket list. We have a date for almost everything on the list. They've all been paid for or donated by loved ones and complete strangers! We couldn't ask for a better way to spend our last moments with our daughter. Thank you so much everyone!
