Stephanie and Linda were scheduled to fly back to Trenton today. Winnipeg has agreed to let them go back as long as we go directly to the Kingston General Hospital as soon as they land; Kingston is waiting for them.

As soon as they arrived in Trenton, it was off the plane, into the car, and off to Kingston where Stephanie was admitted.

Stephanie is still sick so Linda brought Stephanie into a local clinic.  Suspecting more than a simple 24-hour flu, the doctor ordered a routine Complete Blood Count (CBC) which his clinic can do right there.

When the results come back, he immediately makes Linda take Stephanie to Emergency at the Winnipeg Health Sciences Center. Although it is obvious that he suspects the worse, the only thing that he is willing to say is to insist that Linda have somebody go with her. They suspect that it is Leukemia.
