Busy Month...

Hi Everyone!

As they say, "No news is good news". X has been feeling great! We have been super busy this month, I think he is trying to make up for a year of being stuck in the house. He has been swimming at friends houses, going to the movies, went to Disneyland, and went to visit Grandma Connie in Vegas... He also had his first baseball practice last week. He did really well, he just needs to build up his endurance again. It was wonderful to see him out there!

X had his bloodwork done last Tuesday, but now CHOC doesnt give me the counts unless there is a problem. I wish they didnt change their system, I liked knowing where he was at...
He has spinal chemo next week on the 28th. Will let you know how it goes.

Wish has been granted...

Hello everyone! X has been doing great! We went to clinic on Tuesday, he had IV chemo. This was the first time we have had chemo without the broviac catheder. They had to run an IV in his hand because the medication is so strong and can cause a burn so they cant do it in the elbow joint. He didnt love getting the IV but it is much better than having the broviac all the time. They ran his labs at our appointment, his ANC is 1859 which is very good. The Dr is very pleased with his progress and said that he looks great! He has really been enjoying his freedom...he has been swimming like a fish! I think he is trying to make up for lost time!

Also, we heard from the Make-A-Wish foundation this week...they have granted his #1 wish. We are going to WRESTLEMANIA!! He is super excited! They have lots of fun stuff planned, and will fill us in more when the trip gets closer. (late March 2010)

Have a safe and happy 4th of July!!
