Well, Grant spiked a fever last night, soooo we are in here for 2 more days at least. We are now hoping to get home on Sunday morning. We all beleive that the fever is a side effect of the chemo he received yesterday. After he woke up yesterday, he was in good spirits until around 6:00 p.m. Before that he was up running around the room with my Dad and playing baseball. Then, around 6:00 p.m. he fell asleep. He woke up at 8:00 and threw up. He then threw up 5 more times over the course of the night and spiked a fever of 101.9 around 2:00 a.m.
The good news is he counts went WAY up over night and he is no longer confined to the room. He also has not run a fever since 6:00 a.m. this morning. So, at least that is going well for us!
I'll update this again later. I want to go snuggle with both my kiddos while I have a chance today!
