The Week in Review

This week has been torturous. Jamey has had no energy and been feeling terribly all week. He stayed home from school with Vivienne on Wednesday and Thursday, but we forced him to go on Friday. There, he fell asleep in class, then went to the nurse to lay down. Yesterday we had the Kaminows over for Shabbat, and he could barely eat with us. Today he was supposed to play with a friend, but he was too tired. He finally got a little energy to go out, but that quickly went away and he was too tired to enjoy going out to dinner with our good friends. We feel so bad for him - he has headaches and nausea - and there's absolutely nothing we can do. On top of everything, he is going in every two days to get two shots of chemo. When we went today, he saw the injections and almost fainted. :-( I know this is only for 6 weeks, but it seems like forever . . .

To top it off, VIvienne goes back to Israel tomorrow. We will miss her so much - she's been a great source of comfort and support. Wish she could stay . . . .
