The Oncologist says Lyric has to stay on his antibiotics until Thursday. They are concerned the infection is still there in his cheek.. and his counts have not come up yet to indicate if there still is an infection. They are arranging to have a Dentist come to see Lyric to make sure it's not his teeth, but they otherwise don't know what's wrong. It's weird. After they stop the antibiotics they have to wait a day or two to see if the fever returns or if he gets more pain. They are pushing his bone marrow test to Tuesday of next week, and will then start his next round of chemo on Wednesday. So we are here... for the next couple of weeks. It is now 5 weeks that I haven't been home, and will be 7 at the end of this chemo... and only THEN if he's ok we can go home. Sigh.... I'm so tired.
The adrenal fatigue has returned (no wonder with being told I'm now here another 2 weeks)... so tomorrow I am getting a massage and Reiki which helps out alot.
Lyric is great, no problems at all. He had a blood transfusion today so he wasn't allowed out on an LOA, but hopefully tomorrow he will be and we can get out for a walk or something.
It was Paul's birthday today so he brought Avery up and we had some Boston Pizza delivery... he opened some gifts and the kids made some cards.
Avery is wonderful, she's still singing and dancing.. and being artsy little Avery. I love spending what time I can with her. I am going to try and get her into a music class or dance.. she needs to have an outlet.
I feel really bad for the kids who have ALL Leukemia, their chemo protocol is over 3 years!!! I couldn't do this for 3 years!

Ohh Sarah. I can only imagine how tired you feel. I hope that Lyric's cheek feels better soon and that the next two weeks fly by.. Ashley C
