Julia, my thoughts and prayers are with you, your family and your sweet daughter.
My daughter's best friend Anissa Ayala had leukemia. This was in 1988 and her story was known world wide and a TV movie was made about her story also. You can Google her name Anissa Ayala and several stories come up. You can Google City of Hope and look under Success Stories or:
http://www.cityofhope.org/HCT/successstories/ayala.htm
If you need to talk to Anissa herself, just let me know. There is always hope and faith that lifts one up!!!
Thinking of you. XO
Hugs, Maryjane Lee

UPDATE
Lavender Fields Dreamer and I got to stop by the hospital just a bit okay.
Julia said to say thank you for all the support. Right now they are all in good spirits and taking one thing at a time. As I write this Aria is in surgery getting her port put in. When she can she will be in touch with us.

If there are little comfort/entertainment gift that Julia would allow, please let me know. Hospitals, after the scary part wears off a bit, are really boring places to be for any length of time. Just let me know. I wanted to add that my boyfriend and I are both sending much love and healing thoughts toward the whole family, and especially little Aria. We are with you in spirit Julia.
Hugs and comfort

Julia, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter's illness. All of you will be in my thoughts & prayers. My father-in-law has been fighting acute leukemia for over 12 years now. He is 82 years old & is still winning the battle! The new medicines they keep coming out with have been truly miraculous. A big hug to your precious child.

Julia, I was surprised that when I joined the group that I read something so close to my life, I was diagnosed with acute promylecytic leukemia in Nov. '90, went into remission, relapsed 18 months later and received a bone marrow transplant in Nov. '92 and have been in remission for 15 years now...I feel so positive for ya'll and your heartache that you are going through now, I just know that everything will be okay!!!hugs and kisses and many thoughts and prayers sent your way

I don't know if your daughter has to stay in the hospital for awhile or can go home and have her treatments but I know that she will probably be bored a lot either way and was wondering if you could e-mail your address so that my daughter and I could put a little care package together for her. Kids love to get mail and hopefully I can include some things to keep her busy. Let me know - and we are still praying for her!

Julia,
Aria & your family are in my heart & prayers. I can not begin to imagine the hurt in your Mama's heart. But we are here being strong for you and lifting you up in spirit & prayer.
I, too, would like to send a little care package if someone can provide me with an address.
Blessings, Lea

Did I read somewhere that Julia also has a little boy? Does anyone know his age? I don't want to forget him. Siblings of children who are going through medical challenges often have their own set of distresses & they often get lost in the chaos. They need our support & love as well. As a mom, it really helped me when others showed love to my older boys when our youngest was so ill.
So if anyone can share information about that, I would really appreciate it.
Blessings, Lea

Lea, her son is older i think around six or sevenish. she also has another daughter who is probably around oneish. when i went and saw them i didnt think to ask how old the kids were. so i am guessing but i atleast know that her son is older and the sister is younger.

Julia,
I am so sorry I am slow in responding. I have been away from my computer for several days. You and your sweet family will be in my thoughts and prayers. When I met you at our "tea" in November, I was so instantly drawn to you . . . your warmth and charm and most of all the amazing way you spoke of your family . . . with total love and devotion. I will keep Aria in my prayers. I live close too and would be more than willing to do anything. I will check in at Sacred Heart and see if Aria is still there tomorrow.
Hugs & blessings and heart-felt prayers,
Brenda
