All is well

Ezra did make counts yesterday, they were just a little over 1,000. So he got to have some vincristine and doxarubicin yesterday. No side effects yet from those.

Then today he went in for a spinal tap with chemo. He is so freaking amazing. I can’t even express it in words. He just takes it all at face value. Such an inspiration.

We came home and he ran laps around the kitchen. Nothing slows him down. It does my heart wonders to see that.

We start steroids again tonight, so ask me in a few days if I still think he is amazing. He will get 7 days on and then 7 days off of them. They were awful for him the first time, but he did have 28 days of them not 7. So we shall see.

  8. Sounds so strange to say congrats you made counts now you can get some chemotherapy. Ha!

    Keep it up Ez... He will fly through this. Watch out for fevers in the second half, and keep up the good work.
