The Best Christmas Gift!

As many of you might already know, the McCarty family got a great bit of Christmas cheer recently.  Here's an excerpt from the most recent Caring Bridge journal, written by Katie's mom, Marla:

Marla writing...

We have had a whirlwind of blessings over the past few days!

After enduring an overly long wait to get results back from Katie's bone marrow aspirate on Monday (some machine was down), we got the fantastic news that her marrow is clear. Which means Katie is in REMISSION! She still has another round of chemo and the bone marrow transplant but has had an excellent response to the first round of chemo and she's on her way to a full recovery.

And they're tossing us out of the hospital for a little while. If all goes well, we'll be spending Christmas at our house in Kerrville! Katie can have visitors. Keep in mind her mother will not admit anyone with sniffles, fevers or any general communicable crud : )
