2 more days!!!!



Nolan giving his thumbs up! All is good :-)


The day of the 23rd Nolan had a lot of strange neurological things go on that still can't be explained.  All I know is, it is much better.  When going into this we were informed because of the area's they are radiating he could loose some vision and more hearing.  I am seeing a little vision problems but not much.  There is a chance once they are done it will improve.  Right now all the tissue around the tumors are getting swollen and inflamed from the radiation which can cause some disturbing and uncomfortable symptoms and that is where the decadron comes in.  After talking with the doctors we decided to try and leave Nolan's decadron dose alone since he only has 2 more days.  He should finish up on the 31st then we will meet with Dr. Aguilera on January 2nd and sign all the papers to start chemo. I think Nolan might even be able to start chemo that day.  He's having some awesome counts right now (ANC 7,700, hemoglobin 10.5 and platelets are 150,000, so amazing!) We are looking at another MRI in 4-6 weeks.

Thank you everyone for all the prayers and support!! We had such a wonderful Christmas :-) There were so many people that made it extra special.  We are so truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family!
