Tuesday- today was a good day and went as to be expected. I did get alarmed because one of the side effects of the chemo is confusion. I brought it to the nurse's attention. Every little thing alarms me. Cody was tired and slept in the morning and the later in the afternoon. His friend Nikki made the trip in and I know he was happy to see her. We played a few games in the room and he rested. The good thing is that he is still eating. I went to the counseling center to speak to a psychiatrist there. I was good. We will meet again in 3 weeks and do more evaluating. We had lunch downstairs and went to dinner with his dad. Oh it was quite cozy just the three of us. Just relaxing in our room and getting ready for bed.
Ohhhh. Cody had a favorite nurse that he used to talk to during the night when he was so sick. He loved Erin! She works at the Hospital for Special Surgery now. I was just sitting around and made a phone call and found her! She is a sweetie. We will see her this week. Cody will be thrilled.
And we do it all again tomorrow. Tomorrow is a dentist appt and physical therapy for Cody.
How lucky Cody is to have such a proactive Mom!!

You guys are amazing!! You take what you need to in stride and somehow are making the "best" of an incredibly trying and hard to handle situation. I am glad your Dad is here and that you are both seeing therapists, it helps so much if they are effective. Glad you made contact with the nurse he liked; finding support from people on the front lines is great.
