Another Clinic Monday... Day 383 30NOV09

Clinic days on Monday seem to be our routine so far. Clinic...Good - Hospital...Bad.  I will take clinic visits over hospital visits any day! Joshua is doing great. Thanks to those "oh so wonderful" steroids, his counts are in the 2000's. Everything else is looking good as well. Joshua enjoys his clinic visits because he gets to see all of his "cancer" buddies and he also gets to hang out with the wonderful volunteers that play with the kids. It's also nice for me because while Joshua and Jarrod are off in the "art" room, I can hang out with other moms and just talk! It's good sometimes to be able to help the new moms and compare notes. Every child is so different yet they are all alike!

After clinic, we stopped by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to drop off Joshua's handmade Christmas Card. He was excited to see where they all hang out!

At home was another school day, followed by bike ride, dinner, a little t.v and then off to bed.....otherwise...Normal!

God, I love normal!

Normal - amazing what a cancer family lives as normal that is so different to other people. Renee, I am sure the "moms time" is a wonderful way for you all to share adn be there for each other. You are such a wonderful, caring person.
I can't wait to see the LLS billboards with Joshua's photo on them in the spring:)

Love, Laura and Frank
