Brody is feeling good today

Brody is feeling pretty good today.   He slept all through last night.   He has not had any pain medication today and has been moving around well even with his nephrostomy tubes in tow.   He is using his bear backpack to hold the bags that collect the urine coming through the nephrostomy tubes.   He has been busy visiting and playing with his friend Lucy and his brothers.   They've made play-doh creations,  played matching games and are playing Super Smash brothers on Wii.   Barbie brought over a bunch of cards made by the boys' classmates for each of the boys.   They really enjoyed reading each one.   Their classmates made some really cute cards.   Very sweet.   Brody lost his front tooth this week.   The other front tooth is getting very loose too.   Brody got a certificate from school (believe from his teacher for the lost tooth)  and they also found him a small Hulk tooth holder which will come in handy for the next tooth.   Brody was very excited for the tooth fairy to have visited the hospital this week.  

Brody's hemoglobin is low today (from the chemo he received Monday).   Brody will be getting blood transfusion here soon. 

It has been greater than 24hrs now since Brody has had a fever.   He got his last dose of IV antibiotics this morning.  He will be monitored here at the hospital today.   As long as Brody does not have any more fevers,  no pain,  and is feeling ok,  he will get to go home from hospital tomorrow.   YAY!!

Keep praying that  this time the chemo is gonna work and Brody continues to improve.   Feels sooo good to see him feeling so much better today.   My happy little boy is back.
