Hello Everyone

Ok so here is a little blog to help keep everyone tuned in and up to date on Khloe and how she is doing.  First let me start when it all happened.  Khloe was not feeling well and Damion looked at her and said "mom her eye is black."  After 2 days of little sleep, I freaked out and we went to the ER.  They said it was pink eye go home it will get better.  Days later, when her eye was not looking any better, I took her to her doctor and an optimologist, he referred me to a different Dr the same day who then tried to get us in to a specialist later that day.  What I thought was nothing turned out to be cancer.  We didn't know it yet, no one did.  So we spent the next week at different doctor's office while they looked at her.  Most of them looked and said "she needs to see a specialist," or "Are you sure there was no trauma."  When they finally did an ultrasound on her eye they saw it was full of blood.  She was admitted to the hospital for surgery and an MRI.  A biopsy was done, which wasn't what should have happened.  Then we waited and waited, still not knowing what was going on we knew there was a tumor at the back of her eye.  Along with the tumor, her retina, the whole back part of the eye was detached and the lens(at the front of the eye) had also detached and the tumor had started growing around it.  Her eye was black because it was full of blood.  Her blood vessels had somehow started bleeding into the eye.  In May on her dad's birthday, she had her left eye removed.  2 weeks later they had biopsied the eye and determined it to be cancer.  In June we met with her oncology doctor at Children's Hospital LA.  We were told that because of the size of the tumor and the biopsy she would have to undergo extensive chemotherapy. 

Now we sit here in the hospital at what we hope is one of her last rounds of chemo.  We are praying that after this round she only has one more to go.  We have unfortunately had to come back to the hospital a week or week and a half after chemo for a fever.  She seems to be handling her chemo well.  This time she is tired and has a fever.  Please pray that her fever will go away and we will be able to go home soon.  She will start her next session of chemo tonight.  Khloe has 4 different chemo medicines she gets over a 3 night period.  I will keep you updated and thank you for the prayers!
