Gianni is our pants on fire 6 yr old. In Nov 07 she was diagnosed with a supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (sPNET), a highly malignant, rare brain tumor. Dr. Nalin Gupta (UCSF) performed surgery to completely remove the tumor. She completed 9 mos of high dose chemotherapy with Dr. Paul Fisher/Trish Murphy, NP at Stanford's LPCH (Palo Alto, CA) in Aug 08. Today (19 Nov 2011) she is 1,464 days (4 yrs, 3 days) NED!!! [who's counting...?] Thank you for your positive thoughts!

Cycle 7, Chillin' with Dad and Mr. B
Clinic today; regular physical exam and dose of Vincristine. It's been a low key few days at home, Tony even kept Bruno home from school yesterday so that Gianni would have someone to torture.
