Hello,
We had a good week and weekend. The boys have been getting along so good and playing really well. Over our school break we decided to buy bunk beds for Colby's room. He had been asking for them and likes to sleep on the top bunk. We were also having an issue with Nick and constantly finding his way in our bed. Nick did not like sleeping alone and I guess his bed was uncomfortable. He was so excited to see the bunk beds and very happy to sleep on the bottom bunk. The boys are also very good at bedtime. We had a quiet weekend and lots of play time with Joey & Megan.
I took Nick to clinic yesterday and it was uneventful. Nick counts were good, on the normal side.
WBC: 7.7
RBC: 10.4
Plts: 300
APC: 6,300
Nurse Pat has decided to increase his 6MP dose. Nick started a new cycle this week, Vincristine, Methotrexate, Steroids (5 days), and 6MP (14 days). We decided to tell Nick that he was on his 'Happy' pills this week, instead of the 'Cranky' pills. Not sure if it will help with the emotions, but we'll try. Take Care, Karen
Nick is an amazing 6 year old fighting T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). He was diagnosed at 4 years old on Oct. 15, 2008 and here is the story of his courageous battle. This day changed our lives forever. Nick seemed very healthy at the time and the only signs we noticed were swollen lymph nodes on his neck. At first, we thought it could be a virus, but after 2 rounds of blood tests, the doctors confirmed our worst fear, cancer. This site is to show how strong our little boy is.
Update:
Nicholas finished treatment on 11/18/2010. He will continue to go for blood work for the next 3 years. He is still in remission.
