Great news!!

Thank you all for following Skylars Journey...we apologize for not updating the blog as often as we'd hoped while we are here in Salt Lake.  We are however, happy and exited to tell everyone that her recent biopsey results came back negative for Hepatoblastoma!!! They were able to remove all of the cancer in her liver and now we are FINALLY on the downward slope to recovery and 2 final rounds of chemo. This will take about six weeks long...and of course quite a few check ups to make sure it doesnt return. We were so exited to hear the good news...I just had to give Dr. Meyer (her surgeon) a big hug and thank you.

Our little girl is such a tough little cookie. She has been all smiles and giggles the past few days....we are so happy to see her take this so well. Its amazing. Your prayers and support have really done wonders for our family. I truly believe that our Heavenly Father had his hand in all of this. Through the many blessings, prayers and days of fasting, we are seeing another miracle here. This is an amazing story of faith during hard times. Someday Skylar will have may opportunities to share her story that I believe will bring hope to a lot of other young families going through these seemingly unbearable trials.
