Finally heard from St. Judes. They have received all the info and half the slides they needed. I called Childrens Mercy to see if I couldn't speed up the request for the other half of slides they needed. Being persistant and assertive is becoming a lot easier for me. Im finally learning. lol. So I got them to agree to slicing it now-and sending it out today and overnight through FedEx! For those of you who dont know me that well-I am not an assertive person. lol. Then, I called St. Judes to let them know they should be recieving the slides by Monday. She let me know that if they get them before Tues. Blake's case most likely will be presented at the Brain Tumor Conference on Wed. Worst case we would be looked at the following Wed. I am so excited that we will finally be figuring out the plan! If St. Judes has the same plan as Childrens Mercy, we will stay here and get treatment. If St. Judes has a clinical trial going on that we qualify for-or have a different treatment plan-we will review and choose which plan we feel is BEST for Blake. I am feeling very optimistic!! Thanks for all the positive thoughts and prayers!!
