Update – March 22, 2007 (phase 1, day #16)
hello
boy am i hungry all the time! daddy says i’m eating them out of house and home–whatever that means! i like to have pasta or pizza around 2:30am, so mommy and daddy have been really great about getting me stuff. i’m really craving salty foods and they say i’m puffing up because i’m “retaining water” another thing i don’t know about (but mommy says i’ll understand someday!).
the medicine they gave me on wednesday in my port-a-cath is called vincristine. plus they took some bone marrow to test, we probably won’t get those results until monday…as for medicine, remember how they were treating me for fungus in case that’s what my problem is? well, that’s either a 60-90 day treatment, but could go up to 6 months! and they’ve given me some more medicine to take care of the other medicine…it’s all very confusing, but as long as they keep using the orange syrup, i’m trying to make the best of it! everyone says i’m really brave and good about taking all the medicines they’ve been giving me.
today, i walked around some more, which is really neat! i’ve been wanting to do more of that, but until yesterday i really couldn’t do it very well. it’s still really hard and i can’t do it for long periods of time, but it does feel good
well, i’d better get some sleep if i’m going to wake up mommy, daddy and grandma for my pasta at 2:30am…too bad i can’t wake all of you up too–we could have lots of fun eating pizza together!
nighty nite! *baby snore*
