Tomorrow we go to Riley for our 5th visit in the maintenance phase. It will be quick, as Ev doesn't have a spinal tap and the chemo he is getting is a small amount and can be given in about 15 minutes.
Last visit his ANC was in the 6,000s due to a possible infection in his body (or the chemo drug dosage needs to go up). Either way, we will find out tomorrow. The glitch in the system is that Ev has woken up feeling sick off and on in the past two months or so. Because it's not consistent its hard to tell if it's a random bug or a psychological thing. (It seems unlikely that it has to do with the meds he is taking at home.) It usually happens Tuesday mornings...he wakes up nauseous and lethargic, pukes for a bit and then slowly transitions into his happy self by the end of the day. Though I am not alarmed by this, I look forward to figuring out how to end it.
We have had a busy June with the treehouse being built, camping with the grandparents and the Make A Wish party.
The party was so much fun and we were all exhausted from it. I've never been a part of such an amazing kid party. Dinner, fireman truck training 101, a police escort, a bat mobile, cake and plenty of play time with neighbors, friends and family.
It's been a fun month and I am so glad for it, no matter if it takes a bit to replenish.
