X had his appt on Tuesday for spinal chemo and IV chemo. Everything went really well, he did it without sedation again. What a tough cookie! He did feel pretty bad the rest of the day though, sore back, nausea, etc... The Dr decided to do a blood test to see how Xavier's body is metabolizing the chemo so far, because as of right now he is still on lowered doses. We will have results in a week or two. The Dr said that some kids just dont handle high doses, so that might be why his counts took a long time to recover. His labwork from Tuesday have his counts at 1795 which is GREAT! We also finally got the authorization from our insurance to have his catheder removed! He has a consultation appointment with the surgeon on the 13th to go over the procedure and explain everything. After that we should have the procedure scheduled in a week or 2. He cant wait! Will update again after the appt on the 13th.

Xavier,
Great job! keep up the hard work and you are still at the top of our pray list buddy. Grant went to an LA Angels game last night and he wanted to stop by and see you, since you family and all. We told another time would be better. But you are in our thoughts and prayers always!
Love your Colorado Fans! How about those Nuggets...Please don't tell us your a Lakers fans too ;0)
with love
Tina, Scott & Grant
