I know we just posted a picture of Carly napping but we couldn't help ourselves. Carly had a checkup with the general pediatric surgery team yesterday to make sure her lung was completely healed. The chest x-ray showed that she has healed perfectly so that chapter is now behind us.In preparation for Carly's next surgery we have been checking with the other major centers for pediatric brain tumor treatment to see if there is any additional insight for Carly's treatment. Dr. Gupta recommended we speak with the teams at Boston Children's, NYU Children's and St. Jude and all have been very responsive in evaluating Carly's case. We will meet with Dr. Gupta next Thursday to review all of the input along with his recommendations to finalize the plan for the next procedure. We continue to visualize the day when Carly will be tumor free.
Love, Brad

What a cutie!! I think Big Bird has a friend. Here's praying that the best talent will provide a final cure for Carly. "The light is at the end of the tunnel" and I see it coming.. You two are something else...D
Ooooh! So happy you posted that photo. She is precious. You are so fortunate and blessed to have such a great team of experts helping Carly along. And with all the love and support she's surrounded by, as well, it's easy to envision the very best! We love you all!
Carly and Big Bird = BFF
This picture is just so beautiful... All the best, Cécile
Dear Brad, Crista and Carly,
I am a friend of Sue Sheinkopf's. I have followed your blog since early last fall. I read it as often as you post because you write with such warmth and I have developed a deep fondness for you all. I have a 6 year old, a 3 year old and a 9 month old (who does not look unlike Carly in the way that babies can resemble one another in their baby-ness). I think of you all often, I feel honored to share your journey, and you are always in my prayers. I am writing because I wish I could give back to you some of the joy and appreciation for life that you have shared with me. But maybe it helps to know that somewhere in Oakland there is a little family that regularly sends you love.
All of my best,
Meghan O'Leary Herreras
