Second round of chemo

Lucas had the second round of vincristine and daunorubicin today. He was also taken off IV fluids so the nurse can monitor his vitals and get him ready to go home after two days. He has been complaining about tiredness and hasn't walked since yesterday. The doctors want us to encourage him take a walk every day.

New medicine today is an oral medication to decrease the chance of getting pneumonia again. Twice a day, every Saturday and Sunday. Still on Zantac and decadron and stool softeners.

Alex is at our dear friend Sijin's house for a first-time-ever sleep-over. He was very pleased to find out that we would go back home on Monday.

    今天去了earthfare,问了会员卡之类的优惠制度。被告知没有。我看见他们有购物礼品卡，朋友可以买了金额充进。
    今晚去vineyard Columbus 去做了弥撒，诚心为lucas的健康做了祈祷！

      Thanks, Mickey! I will try to make it a mother-son one-to-one bonding time by taking Alex to go grocery shopping with me weekday mid-mornings.

    好像好好抱抱他哦~仿佛可以闻到他身上的宝宝味道。除了train table可以让他绕着走圈圈，还有什么东西能motivate他多运动呢？Xbox？让我想想~

    闪光的Thomas或者汽车的鞋子，Lego或者黑夜里发光的Crocs洞洞鞋，保龄球或者mini golf玩具，nerf gun需要不停捡子弹，试一下？
