Sophie Fleming

Can you believe that Sophie has been in remission a little over a year now? Decemeber 24, 2008 marked her one-year remission date! And boy has she grown! So much has happened this past year for her. Well, of course, she turned two! Also,she found out she was going to be a big sister. She has so much hair now she can wear little pig tails but as she calls them her 'knots'. On her last check-up, December 13th, at St. Jude’s she had her repeat scans to make sure there was no cancer. We found out even better news not just that the cancer was still gone-- but her scar tissue was also gone! No sign of anything! Praise God! She now gets to visit St Jude’s Clinic every six months for scans instead of every three months since she is doing so well! I want to thank the girls at the Ronald McDonald House for not just being great friends, but also being family. They have always made a point to check up on Sophie and our family. What a wonderful group of ladies. We love you all!
