Last High Dose Methotrexate

Lucas started his last scheduled hospital stay on Tuesday morning and he cleared to start chemo 5:45pm.   Jianwei took time off for 3 days to stay with him in the hospital.  I get off work a little early and take Alex to visit them in the evenings.  I miss Lucas a lot but surely also enjoy the special moments with Alex.  Both of them have been great sweet boys.  Lucas is very used to hospital setting now and is known to enjoy flirting with young nurses on the floor.  Jianwei doesn't like to have too much TV time for the kids so Lucas were out playing all the time -- digging through every single toy in the play room and doing their rounds on the floor.  His 24 hour number for MTX blood level was 23.  We will have the 42 and 48 hour number 11:45am and 5:45pm today.  Hopefully Lucan can come home tomorrow morning.

  1. HI Crystal. It is Shannon, from around the corner, with the 4 crazy boys:)
    The boys and I were just talking about seeing so many neighbors now that it is starting to get nice (except for today that is) and they mentioned you guys. They said, "those 2 quiet little boys!" (I wonder if anyone has ever said that about any of my kids)
    So anyway, we just wanted to see how you were all doing and I wasn't sure what your schedules were like, but if you guys want to come play, just let me know. We have a trampoline, play set and lots of water toys. I thought Alex was Eli's age. They love to have friends to play with in the neighborhood, so please bring him over and the boys can play. My email is sdc2007@yahoo.com
    Also, I do not cook (and when I do, I can assure you, you do not want to eat it), but we would love to bring you a dinner or lunch that you can all eat. Can you give me any suggestions? A restaurant, frozen meal, etc!
