Now on her 3rd day of treatment, Erica is a little fatigued today. She was able to get on the treadmill this morning for about 10 minutes, so she is happy about that. Although, yesterday she outdid herself and was able to get on the treadmill 2 times for 15 minutes each.
She was very happy to see her older brother Todd today, who came up from North Carolina to run in the Cherry Blossom Run tomorrow with his high school friend Henry. Even tired, Erica was able to give Todd a few pointers for his first 10 miler.
Erica says thank you to everyone for their continued well wishes and truly appreciates all the thoughts and prayers and postings on the blog.

Even during treatment, you'll shame most of us with your treadmill work! But I'll be getting even more daily walks in now . . . we got a dog today. I'm still not sure how that happened!
Keep it up Erica! Always thinking of you.
We love you Erica! Hope that you are feeling good and getting ready to get back home tommorrow or Tuesday morning. We look forward to seeing you soon. Xander talks about his trips to "see Erica's house and Mrs. Lipman be there". He is looking forward to another walk to the park. Sweet dreams. Our love, Jason, Chandra and Xander
Getting on the treadmill during treatment that's awesome, you rock girl.
We hope you get to go home soon Erica. We've been thinking of you!
love,
Karen and Nate
