Saturday, Nov. 29

Quiet morning here and nice to know my boys are still sleeping.  Casey got here Thursday and it has been bittersweet.  We have had to have some very tough conversations with Cody.  It breaks my heart that 2 brothers have to do this.  Cody adores his brother and now he has to speak to him about the hardest decisions ever.  We are enjoying our time together, nonetheless.  Cody was quiet and slept most of Thursday and did not eat too much.  He was better yesterday and we got out.  He wanted the new game system, PS4 for Christmas so I bought it for him.  He loved playing it.  Casey leaves tomorrow so we will make the most of today.  I will get him here whenever he wants to come. It's tough, any way you look at it.
Cody had blood work yesterday and his counts were ok.  He seems to be breathing a bit better but still is in pain.  Maybe the lung radiation dried up a little of the flood.  He still uses oxygen at night.  We have to tweak the meds every day or so to try to get it right.  He is eating ok but not a lot of snacking which he used to do.  He gets wiped out easily and he does ask me to lie with him at night.  The three of us crowded in there last night.
Thank you all, once again for all of your constant support and love.  We feel it.  We are so lucky that way.  I am speechless.  My sleepovers are the best.  Just need someone here at night or I would never sleep either.  Thank you.

  1. Mary,

    I am so sorry.The conversations are heart shattering, I wish there was a way to turn back time and create a different outcome for you all. My love to you and Cody and your family..

    I slept with Tyler from the time we heard the news and also many nights over the course of four years. He needed the comfort and company and so did I. I still sleep there many nights; I find it comforting to be there and I don't like his room to be empty for long.

    xoxo,
    Diane
