CHICAGO, HERE WE COME!

Well, it's official. Are plan of action is in place! Sean has an appointment set up at an oncologist specialist in Chicago on Wednesday, March 5th. Sean will hopefully be starting a new trial there of the compassionate use of a drug called ipilimubab (crazy name, I know!). Others may know this drug as MDX-010 or anti-ctla4. It would have been impossible to find out any of the information on this trial if it weren't for a few other wives who know exactly what we are going through, so I am great full for you beyond words! I am not fully sure on the side effects of ipilimumab, but to my understanding, they will be far less severe then Sean's IL-2. I will be sure to let everyone know how Sean's appointment goes on Wednesday.
Tomorrow we will be celebrating Ella's first birthday! Oh my goodness, I cannot believe she will be ONE next week! Both the girls continue to grow, Addie has become so independent and Ella is still so cheerful as ever. Ella now has 3 teeth, she is able to go from sitting to standing all by herself now (without holding on to anything), and I am sure she will be walking in no time. Oh no!
