There is always something..

So we are done the first half of his chemo.. things have gone really well. He was sick yesterday, but got through it with Atavan. He was as high as a kite... even had the munchies. But it's better than him feeling like he's going to die.

So yesterday he started a slight fever, they thought maybe it was from the chemo... but to be safe they took a culture from his hickman. He's maintained a slight fever, but they haven't treated with tylenol at all. The culture came back positive. So they are repeating the culture to see if it's not a mistake. He's also got a sore area on his neck, his left side if his face is bit puffy.. sheesh!! I thought we were free and clear! damn it!

So now they are deciding which antibiotic to give him.. and for how long.. it will all depend on his reaction to it and what they find in the cultures.

I am sharing a room with a woman and child.. he's 4 today. And a brat. She hits him, they curse at eachother.. he throws fits like you wouldn't believe.. and through the night she keeps the tv on, and doesn't ring the bell when her machine is beeping. So I have to get up and do it. The phone doesn't stop ringing.. and there is constant drama. She has 6 kids, one got suspended from school yesterday. This kid here has a rare form of cancer. They've been here for awhile.

Anyways I'm having Avery for the weekend at the Ronald McDonald house. I'll keep you all posted!
