Day 3

Today I woke up w/ a very sore throat. Not sure if its my allergy/sinus/cold or related to the chemo. Last time I got a sore throat too, so??? Otherwise I'm doing pretty well! I got in again this afternoon to hear Rachel & then get a new bag of Agent Orange.

Simon seems to be mostly over his cold. We're still giving him Amoxicillin though. His friend James had an accident last night & had to have his head glued together. His mom reports that he's doing fine though. I'm just glad it was James (sorry Jen) and not Simon. So far we've gone 18 months w/o anything besides a couple ear infections.

Andrew is happy today! His Broncos are getting delivered today. He bought them off of eBay. They're both 4WD. One is fully functional, but the other needs some work. One is red (the fully functional one) and its also a a stick shift. The other is either silver or blue (I'm not 100% sure). I hope everything goes smoothly for him.

Yesterday Rachel was very active for her doppler - around 155 bpm. She was also really active when I tried to lay down for bed! The baby shower was fun! I met a couple new people that will hopefully be FB friends too! I also shamelessly plugged Andrew's business! Hey, pregnant girls & new mom's need their cars worked on too! ;-)

    God Bless You!

    You're too pretty to look "butch!"

    Thanks for sharing your life. Beautiful boy.

    I came here via a FB link your mom posted on Joe Scheidler's page.

    BTW, cancer sucks, but you can beat this.

    I'll be back to read more.

  2. I just now read the glad it was not Simon comment or just don't remember doing so. During that time, I was really stressed and tired from trying to keep up with him and watch his head too. I hate that it happend to James but I am glad it was not Simon either. It was an awful experience that I don't care to go through anytime soon. James is healing nicely though so that is a good thing.

I just had to have my mom buzz my hair because it was falling out so badly.
