Friday night....
Nathan did fine with chemo today. We wouldn't expect him to start feeling bad until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. He had a good time playing and watching videos. Luke and Julia came at dinner and they played together and watched a video together in his hospital bed. It was very sweet to see them lying there together.
Julia was very upset to be going home without Nathan and Daddy. She was very sad to be going to bed alone. It is enough to make me wish sometimes that they didn't have such a close relationship because it tears her apart to be away from him. I don't know what it would do to her to lose him.
Julia and I will go in again in the morning and will just see what we feel like doing during the day tomorrow.
I am bushed since I have been up since around 4:30 this morning so I am going to bed!
**************************************
We are encamped in the hospital waiting for the chemo to arrive. We got the most isolated private room in the pediatric ward. A nice perk - but makes me realize how the medical world views Nathan.
We are in room 3514 at Memorial. If anyone local wants to visit us you can call us at 365-5538 and as long as we are up to it we'd love to see you. We will be leaving sometime on Monday. Luke and I plan to split time but also spend quite a bit of time with all four of us here. Nathan said he would not have any fun being in the hospital without his sister - so we are going to try to have them together as much as can be tolerated.
Nathan has recovered just fine from his port surgery and it isn't bothering him at all.
He will be having a head CT later on in the weekend. We thought it would be good to have a complete picture of everything going on just in case we were to find something in there. It would be devastating if we did find anything in his head so please start your prayers for a clean CT scan.
I will update on top of this later.
Thanks for checking in.
