Day 9, Chemo Round 1 :: Princess For A Day

"Daddy says I'm a Smartie-NoPants,
but I'm a Smartie-Skirt."

Princess Jade decided to grace the Hematology/Oncology Unit with her presence today. After changing the dressing for her central line and taking a bath, she insisted on wearing her Princess Anna dress for the day. She wondered what people would say when they saw a "real live princess."

She sauntered through the halls to the art room, play room, nurses station, and back to the art room -- soaking up the adoration of passersby. And perfected her princess wave. It really is quite majestic.  

It's so encouraging to see her be playful, in good spirits, and making the most of where she is despite what's going on inside of her body right now. I could take a lesson or two from this little one!

Thank you for your continued prayers for Jade's complete healing.
