A Good Day for Sleeping

Ryan is about 5 hours away from finishing his 24 hour drip of chemo. Dr. Davis, his Wright State professor came and visited him this morning to get him started on this week's work, he couldn't get a video that he needed to watch to play on his computer, so her husband graciously came back this evening to bring another computer to watch the video on. Thanks so much to both of them for wanting to help Ryan finish his coursework.

As long as things continue to go well through the night, he will get to come home tomorrow afternoon. He will have another lumbar puncture and a shot of chemo over the next couple weeks, but those are both outpatient procedures so hopefully he'll be home for another two weeks.

Aubrey is having a much better day today than she's had recently, so I believe that she is on the mend as well.

Pray that Ryan's energy begins to come back, he's slept a lot this evening, and that when he comes home that he doesn't have any complications that will send him back to the hospital.

  1. So glad to hear that Ryan is nearly finished with this round, and that his teachers are being so supportive. What a blessing in a trying time!

    I'm glad you'll have Ryan home again soon and that Aubrey is doing better. That in itself has to make things a bit brighter.

    God bless all of you with the energy you need right now!

  2. We are gald to hear Ryan's treatment is going well and equally as glad that Aubrey is feeling better!!! She was so pitful last Saturday. It is never easy having a sick baby! Hopefully Ryan won't get the headaches this go round. We continue to keep all of you in our prayers.

    Love,
    Aunt Alma, Uncle John and Justin

    PS. Justin was disappointed that he did not get to see Aubrey last weekend. He has really taken a liken to her. (Don't let him know I told you that. You know 11 yr old cousins' shouldn't be missing their baby cousin. :) )
