Day #2

Today a second chemo was added for Quinn. He developed a high fever and developed nause and some vomiting.

Later in the evening, his sisters came to visit him. They miss us terribly. Poor little Alex is having a hard time without her brother. For some little girl who wasnt so sure about having a brother in the beginning ...... Heck, they are like mut and Jeff tied to the hip. I felt so sorry for her,s he stood at the door telling him goodbye and I love you! Tears were about to roller down her sweet little face. Quinn looked at her and said "I Love You Too Alex". Those words for Quinn are hard to come by .... So, it was a true blessing to hear him tell her! He even admitted that he missed her and Janie!

Janie has been busy taking pictures of my kitty cats with her IPOD. I must say, she is quite the photographer. The pictures of a few of them are picture perfect!

Today is the Day!!!!

We made it early this morning to Hem/Onc and were held up due to the Hives from the platelets. So with that, we were late getting to Same Day Surgery to get his Hickman put in. It was 3:15 before we got out of there and then had to get to the room. I had 2 wagon loads of stuff to bring up to the 4th floor. I didnt think I was every gonna get done with that. Quinn mentioned he was hungry. He had 8 orders of tater tots!!!!! and a sprite. Wow!!!!

All went pretty well for the most part. He did have some bleeding after the line was put in but nothing unexpected. His platelet count dropped to 6.1. We are waiting for them to come to the floor to be administered.

My Janie is tore apart and can hardly understand her when she calls because she is crying so hard. Poor Baby! Alex is upset but is able to contain herself. Now, they have me looking like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

Tomorrow bright and early at 8am the Chemo begins. It will run in 4 hour incrimentsover 16 hours a day .... everyday until transplant! Poor Baby!
