Another weekend done. The family had a pretty quiet weekend, Saturday afternoon/evening the Bells came over for a visit which we all enjoyed. We got another scare Saturday night when Nathan woke up saying that he was hot. Shelley took his temperature and it was 38.1, just under the magic number where we have to go to the hospital. She gave him some Tylenol and let him sleep in our bed and he had a good sleep. Of course, once that happens Shelley doesn't get much sleep being worried if we are going to have to go into the hospital once again.
The whole family slept in a bit on Sunday. Carter was actually the first one up which NEVER happens which shows how long everyone else slept. It makes sense though when they are up in the middle of the night. However, Nathan now has a cough as does Justin and to some extent Carter. Hopefully it doesn't develop into much more than that and that Shelley and I get to avoid it but if all three boys have it, I'm guessing we will get it before long. We are just praying that Nathan doesn't have to be hospitalized again as that is no fun for anyone in our family.
Tomorrow is the last treatment for the Intensified Consolidation phase. Nathan gets Vinchristine by IV and they will do blood work and so it should be a relatively short day. Nathan then gets the rest of the week off to recuperate before starting the next phase next Monday. As usual, that phase will not start unless Nathan's platelets are at 75 and Neutraphils are at least .75.
