Our visit to the clinic yesterday went pretty much as expected (for once) with no added surprises of blood transfusions. Luckily Sawyer walked out without a headache or backache from the spinal tap (his last for quite awhile - hooray!). His stomach has been unsettled for quite awhile so we're trying to conquer that in addition to his weariness. He hoped to attend school this morning but unfortunately didn't sleep well last night and decided he was too tired to attempt it.
We are planning on heading out of town for a few days on Thursday -- two nights in Lake Placid. Keep your fingers crossed that our plans don't need to be changed and that Sawyer has some energy and an appetite of some sort to enjoy a trip. We probably wouldn't be going if he didn't really want to go. It should be a bright spot for him, ahead of Christmas, knowing that next week he gets hit pretty hard again with week-long doses of chemo.He's also looking very much toward the arrival of his puppy -- we will hopefully bring him home on Christmas Day.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to our many friends and family! May the New Year bring blessings and sunshine to everyone's lives and hearts.
