I am officially B-O-R-E-D!!!! We have been sitting in the room all day....At least we both took a couple of naps (after waking up at 4am) The blessing is that Eli has eaten normally and hasn't gotten sick at all. He is now done with the "big yellow bag" of methotrexate and now we will wait for it to clear his system.

John is coming in the morning so I can go to my niece, Lauren's, graduation. That's right, my little niece is graduating from high school tomorrow....how old do you feel now? It should be fun. Then I will come back here for a while before picking the boys up at camp. They have had such a good week at the tennis center. The camp basically lets them play all day long....just what the doctor ordered.

Now we just hope for no mouth sores. We didn't get ANY the last round..yea!! I hope this time is the same. Eli is now just 1 lb shy of his 31lb January weight. We are going to wean him off of the appetite stimulant that we have had him on. It has worked really well for us, but beginning in 3 weeks he will be given steroids every day for 21 days....there will be no need for a stimulant, he will be eating everything in sight!!!!

Thanks for checking in.....we will be hopefully going home on Sat. morning again!!!
