Holding his own… Day 934 06JUN11

Joshua is doing pretty good so far on the steroids. He managed to get a decent nights sleep and was bright and chipper this morning when he got up. He is, of course, constantly hungry but developed a little heartburn this evening which made it hard for him to find stuff to eat. He was playing a game with Jarrod when I got home tonight and said he had a good day. I started a new semester today so I will be home much less for the next ten weeks and Renee will have to take care of the boys much more. In the morning Joshua has an appointment with his ENT to see if his deviated septum (which is caused by one of the chemo drugs) has gotten any worse and might be the cause of all the sinus and respiratory problems he has been having. He will probably have to have it repaired at some point in his life but we are certainly hoping that it is not anytime soon. We will keep our fingers crossed and see what the Doctor has to say in the morning.
