July 23rd update

3:00 p.m. I haven’t heard officially from St Louis yet on Bennett’s blood test. I got the results from local hospital and I figured his ANC at 1,323.  The rest of the blood test looks good. His sore in his mouth was better this morning. I can tell where it was, as it is red but it doesn’t have the white pocket on it anymore. We will leave at 7:30 for his appt with the Dr. and than we will wait to be admitted to the hospital to begin the high dose methotrexate and an iv push of vincristine. Please pray that Bennett has very few side effects from this next treatment. Your support and God’s is keeping us going!

Bennett stood me up tonight as we had a date to go the movies!  He went to Tyler’s house instead to swim  and play wiffle ball.  He had a great time!

    Just letting you know that my family is praying for yours!!! I hope that you experience few side effects from this round of treatments and that you are back to your old weight Bennett! I have enjoyed reading about you feeling like “your old self” the last few days and I am hopeful that you have many good days ahead of you as this summer winds down. Keep your spirits up!! Much love….

    Bennett—-thinking and praying for you today-especially that the side effects will be mild and that the popsicles help the mouth sores immensely. I am so proud of you. Love you and your Mom
