Nolan had clinic yesterday and all his blood counts look good. There may have been a slight decrease but not much. Dr. Aguilera said, she can see noticeable differences in Nolan. She seems to think his balance looks better and his speech has improved. Maybe, just, maybe...
Nolan is not really showing much symptoms of radiation. He seemed a little nauseous this morning but quickly got over it. Lately he's been like the little energizer bunny :-) He never stops going and he actually has a hard time getting to sleep at night. So different then a couple of months ago when he was practically sleeping around the clock. We were trying benadryl to get him to sleep but Dr. Aguilera told me to try some melatonin. I like that this is a little more natural and she had to throw in the fact it has anti-tumor properties in it and some clinics are using it in combo with chemo. hmmmm....quick trip to GNC and bought some! lol
So far he's used it for two nights with success! :-)
The plan is radiation until Saturday, then he will get a Christmas break of Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
It will be a nice break but we must report back for more the day after Christmas...
