Almost Day 4

Tonight around 9:00 will begin day 4 and the last day of Ryan's chemo for this round. He will get a 24 drip and also a push of a chemo drug (on Tuesday sometime). Doctor was in this afternoon for a lumbar puncture and to give him the results of his cat scan, the minor alarming thing is that they found nothing when they looked at the brain scan, ha ha :) The doctor said everything looked fine on that and his chest x-ray. He'll get to come home sometime on Wednesday as long as he continues to do well as he has been.

Ryan was very tired yesterday, but his hemoglobin was down and the nurses said that can make you tired. He got 2 units of blood, but was awake the whole time I was there yesterday afternoon.

We would ask that you continue to remember Ryan in your prayers, but remember Aubrey as well. She had a high fever over the weekend and has developed a rash, doctor says roseola . . . on top of that, the doctor gave her some antibiotic when the fever first spiked and we think she's also had an allergic reaction to the medicine. She has not been the happiest baby since Thursday, but she seems to be doing better today. We continue to appreciate prayers and cards.

Thank you everyone!
