The almost "End of Radiation" party

We were 2 hours away from Liam’s last radiation treatment, when we took a little detour. Sometime between 10am and 2pm yesterday, Liam spiked a 101.9 temperature, which is an automatic admission ticket to the floor. So here we are again. Rocky night, but the Tylenol is helping Liam stay comfortable, and he was immediately put on antibiotics while they look for the source of the temp. It could be a multitude of things, or it could just be the combination of chemo and radiation catching up to him. Either way, we’ve been promised a minimum 48 hour stay while they watch the blood cultures. In lieu of his last proton radiation treatment, he’ll pick up two photon treatments on Tuesday and Wednesday so the end of radiation party has been postponed a few days.

No movement on the baby front. Most people are now convinced it’s a girl, with all the trouble it’s causing. I’m sticking with my “boy” guess. I’m thinking of starting a pool in the form of a multiple choice questionnaire. Liam’s napping now, so I’ll see how far I can get with it before he wakes up…
