It's been a pretty good week for us, overall. On Monday Jamey had a long chemo (Cytoxin). He had to have an IV flush for two hours before his chemo and four hours after so the chemo doesn't destroy his kidneys. David and I are also giving him two chemos at night - one through his broviak (central line to a vein) and an oral one. He was very tired on Monday and Tuesday, somewhat on Wednesday, but Jamey perked up on Thursday and Friday. We went to the pool, movies, etc., and had a lot of fun. We had a really nice Shabbat tonight - one of his good friends joined us.
On Monday the doctor let us know that Jamey will be in the hospital for several days every other week (for eight weeks), beginning the middle or end of September. That will be difficult, but we will make the most of it and bring games, legos, etc. to the hospital. We plan on doing it Friday through Monday so his school won't be disrupted.
He is still in remission. :-)
Thanks to all of you who have written - we really enjoy the emails and comments.
