Allyson went to the doc today for more chemo - an easy one…just a chemo push through her IV. We were in and out fairly quickly. Once she got home, she was very tired and slept for about two and a half hours. We’ve started Dex again today. Just in case you’ve forgotten, this is the steroid that make Allyson have those lovely mood swings. Thankfully, we only have to give this to her for one week.
It looks like Allyson will be getting her new port on Tuesday. I am thrilled! Hopefully life will return to “normal” (I say that with a smile on my face because we are far from normal) for a while. We’re waiting for an exact time for the surgery.
Benjamin is a crabby little boy today. He fussed and cried towards the end of his dinner for almost a half hour. Nothing would make him happy. He was drooling…the nose was running…I’m sure his teeth were bothering him. I gave him a bath, a shot of Motrin and then put him to bed.
No big plans for the weekend. Tomorrow, I think we are going to look for a special outfit for Benjamin to wear to court for his finalization. I’ve looked around a bit, but I can’t find any cute dress clothes for little boys. I still have a few more places to look.
