Day 21 June 25, 2009

Today is 3 weeks since we got the new cells. Cody has been a little uncomfortable with the rash. The good news is the biopsy went well. Our doctor did her own viewing and saw some new cells!!! This is definitely a good sign. Of course, we have to look at the analysis on Monday or Tuesday but we do have new cells growing. I will take it! Cody is sore from the biopsy and she also did a biopsy of his rash so he has a sore spot there too. I am doing my best to keep his spirits up and I have to tell you, it is hard work!

As I lie here each night, I forget how comfortable we have become here. It feels like a temporary home here. It is easier for me in a lot of ways because of the constant medical care and there is less that I have to worry about here. He is taken care of that way and I can focus on his emotional needs and to make sure he is comfortable. I know when we left Schneider's after 20 days there, I was scared to be home. Now I can only guess how scared I will be leaving here. We have been here 26 days. It is a second home but temporary for sure. We know we are in a good place and getting the best care so that is all that matters right now. Keep up the awesome job, Cody!
