Day 2 and Day 3

Dad played with me all day on Wednesday. Mom and I stayed busy all day today. We walked the halls, played in the playroom, did some coloring, reading, eating and napping. One of my anti-cancer medicines is actually a steroid that is quite bitter tasting, so mom hides it in chocolate ice cream. I'll have ice cream twice a day for the next month! Mommy's friend Sara came to visit and they visited while I took a really long nap. My body is starting to react to the chemo. It's killing some of cancer cells already, but it's making me extra tired. When I finally woke up Mom met with a Dietician to talk about other ways the steroids will affect me and about how my diet should change to keep my bones strong and my weight under control. Then my very special nanny, Anna, came to visit for a bit too. She snuggled with me and I fell asleep early tonight. Thank you for your prayers. Here are pictures from day 2 and 3.

Three X's on my calendar so far. Another strong chemo tomorrow, in my IV; it should take an hour and sometimes kids have an allergic reaction to it. Please pray it goes smoothly for me. Thank you.

  4. I have made this day; rejoice and be glad in it! Love, Your Heavenly Father (Psalm 118:24) The kids are back to school today and we are preparing for the new routine. It seems like all things in life now make me realize what others go through; As we prepared for our first day of school, we prayed for Kit-Kat and her family's continued strength and endurance as she charges on through her treatment. PRAYER WARRIORS NEVER REST!!!! We love you! Have faith in the Lord and in His grace and mercy!!! God bless you, Moses Family. xoxox
