WBC:  6.4 (3.2 on 11/2)
Hemoglobin (red):  11.3 (11.8 on 11/2)
Platelets:  339 (377 on 11/2)
ANC:  4300 (2368 on 11/2)

Maddie was fortunate to be a part of the new Queen’s Cancer Center Commercial, which she was asked to participate in by the American Cancer Society.  She did a great job and enjoyed making the commercial with other amazing cancer survivors and the actress who committed to cutting off all her hair!  The actress actually began the shoot with a full head of hair and they kept cutting and filming and showed it in reverse. 

On a side note, Maddie and Trevor went to two weddings in the last two weeks and I must say they were the king and queen of the dance floor (Maddie’s legs are hurting today… not sure if it’s from the chemo or all the boogey-ing last night).  Enjoy the commercial!
