Back to the Usual

Steroid week is over and Nick is back to himself again. We had a wonderful time at the Red Sox game and the Picnic in the Park after. We decided to take the T into Boston and Colby was very scared to ride the train but once we got moving, he was okay. We did not get to the game until the 5th inning because we knew we were staying late. Nick was great up until the picnic. He was having a lot of pain from the steroids. We brought his codeine and morphine with us but ended up going through all of it by 7pm. We received blankets for the picnic and you can see Nick took advantage of them. Colby was running all over the field and really enjoyed seeing Blue Man Group play. We really wish Nick could of enjoyed the experience as much as Colby but we are thankful for the opportunity to go. (You just have to make the best of the situation).

I took Nick and Colby to clinic on Monday. The place was very busy and we there for about 3 hours. Nick's counts are good and he recieved his Methotrexate.
