Well, I am the mom to a 24 year old now.  I feel OLD!  Glad Casey and Nicole will be here on Thursday.
Things are quiet here.  We did get the chemo but we cannot begin it until his platelets recover.  The sad fact is that they might not recover.  Cody's body is tired and is kinda resistant to chemo now since he has had so much.  I am really leaving it all in God's hands.  It he recovers, then we give it a whirl.  If not, then we know how tired his body really is.  We have been doing some different kinda things.  Just yesterday while it was pouring we hung out in his bed and watched silly videos.  Last night he asked me to lay with him.  Precious time and I would not change it for a second.
I just dropped him off at Adventureland so he can do the Islander Meet and Greet with the players.  He is a trooper.  He had to be there at 7!!  Now we are waiting to see how the wind fairs out today so he can skydive.  Last night, winds were going to be an issue.  Seems very calm out there now but you never know how it is out east or up in the air.  So I will wait for the confirmation.
Yesterday he went to the movies with Moira.  I decided to do my hair appt and she took him to a movie.  I am not such a movie person but Moira and he is so it works.  It saddens me that he does not have those few friends to hang with but I am so grateful for all of mine.
I will update tonight regarding his skydive experience.  I am sure it will be tougher for me on the ground.
