Knocked off another one

One more set of shots, and one more "series" completed today! Free of appointments for the rest of the week! Next Monday he starts the final round of asparaginase shots and will be soooooo happy to get them over with. They should be it - no more are supposed to appear in the maintenance phase.

Sawyer's been feeling pretty worn out and more nauseous than usual since his Friday appointment. It may be due to the combination of drugs: asparaginase, vincristine and methotrexate. Last night was particularly hard. Please, August 11th, get here quickly!

Here's a photo of what he's usually faced with when he goes for his appointments. This is just one set of fluids, meds and needles to come before him during his recent visits. You can start to understand why he really has developed an aversion for heading to Rochester!
