December 30th update
Bennett has his cold back. He is coughing more and a runny nose. He doesn’t feel bad which is good. We’ve started his allergy meds again. Not sure that is it or could it be this so IL weather? One day it’s 7 degrees and a week later it’s 70!
Sid has a pretty bad cold too just started about 2 days ago. He called the Dr. yesterday and got an antibiotic. It seems it has already moved to his chest. I’m washing stuff constantly and wiping down counters and handles, Praying that Bennett doesn’t get this or his cold gets worse.
He took his weekly 10 methotrexate pills. I’ve really pushed the liquid down him today, hoping this will help keep his liver levels in line. I called his nurse to check as I would prefer to go back Monday to check counts (you know we love to go weekly) – LOL) Not really but we would prefer to know what his liver is doing and maybe help correct it before he goes in two weeks for a spinal tap with methotrexate. The methotrexate chemo is what is causing his liver levels to be high, I don’t want to have to cancel the spinal tap. This is important in his treatment plan.
Only 2 more days left of 2008!
