Bennett is doing good.  He says he’s not tired but I don’t see how he can’t be. He got up at 5:30 a.m. and went to bed at 10:00 p.m. and didn’t stop all day.  He had driving this morning with the instructor at 6:00 a.m. at school.  He had two basketballs games tonight and than went to the rest of Lindy’s game after that.  We pray he can keep up with this early morning driving and he can still get enough rest to help keep him healthy.      His team won both A and B games tonight against Hamilton County.  Bennett got to play and did good defensively.  He really kicked in and played great the 2nd half of the B game.  I think he had several steals, rebounds, and made 5 to 7 points.

Hamilton’s travel team had a game tonight too against Mt Vernon.   We lost by about 5 points, they came from behind though and almost had it.  Hamilton played good and enjoys playing.  I think he made 4 points and had several rebounds.  Lindy’s had a game too and was the last home regular season game so it was Senior night for her. They won and she made 28 points! The 2nd highest scoring game she has had.  I wished we could be at 3 places at one time because it’s hard to pick and choose which game to watch because they all are important to us.   

Bennett took his weekly chemo methotrexate today and took 6 pills which is a lower dose than normal.  We hope his liver levels are good when we check counts this weekend and that his ANC is holding in safe range.  The Dr. did say last week that she really liked his last ANC at 1,600 rather than the 500.  I think she gets nervous of what’s next with him too.  When talking to his nurse last week and discussing that  Bennett only has a few more months left of treatment and this will be a day to celebrate;  His nurse agreed  And said Dr. Shenoy will be celebrating with you too because you have really stumped her several times.

May God continue to bless Bennett, keeping him healthy and in remission forever.  

We hope you too go to God in prayer when you have a burden on your heart because he is the only one to get you through.
