Behind schedule

Bridgett and Liam spent Monday night at Mass General with a fever and too high of a white blood cell count... who would have thought that would be an issue??? Well apparently it could be a sign of an infection, so a couple days on an antibiotic have put us a few days behind in starting Liam's chemo this week. The plan now is to have his CT on Thursday (as scheduled), then if everything looks good, go ahead and start chemo Thursday night. Liam’s due for the five night inpatient Ifosfamide / Etoposide combo, but seeing as last time it really hit him hard, Dr. Friedmann is considering just giving him a four day dose.


Needless to say, I have a TON of anxiety around tomorrow.


With the change in plan this week, we had Tuesday afternoon to ourselves and decided to do something fun and put the kids in their Halloween costumes. The original intent was for Jack to be an astronaut and Owen to be a fireman, but they decided to make a switch. It could get messy the day Halloween arrives if they decide they both want to wear the same outfit. We were able to get a good picture of them all; this in fact may end up being our Christmas card picture!!!

Anyway, I am once again behind in sending out thank you notes and retuning email, but we are very appreciative of all the support we continue to receive. Thank you for EVERYTHING…
