"I'm hungry."
"What would you like?"
"I don't know."
"How about some X?"
"No."
"How about some Y?"
"No."
"How about some (go through every edible item in the house)?"
"No."
I think he has a hard time deciding because nothing tastes right anymore. I am really not sure. Nonetheless he still manages to find things to eat after a while.
The big news for the day...
His bone marrow biopsy came back clear.
No cancer cells present!
This was really a relief to hear. The chance of a possible relapse has been lurking in the corner of our minds for several weeks. At least now we know that the fears were unfounded. We still do not know what was causing the high fever. It has decided to remain a mystery for the time being.
Josh will continue on his chemo schedule without losing any time. This was the other good piece of news today. We were concerned that the delays he ran into would push his schedule out of whack. So, he has the week off until next Monday when he will go back to the clinic and get more chemo. He will also go on Tuesday for PEG (the shots in his legs).
In the meantime we are going to try and get him up and moving. He has been lying in bed for a long time. We took a walk outside this evening to get a little exercise and fresh air. He managed to walk halfway and got a ride from Dad back to the house. It was good to get him out for a little while.
