I always feel so thankful after talking with Sarah. I am thankful for healthy children and a normal life. These 2 things Sarah can't wait to enjoy again. I just pray it will be soon!
Tyler went for his chemo treatment on Thursday and returned home late on Sunday. He hasn't eaten in 5 days and has constantly been throwing up. Sarah said this is the worse he has been and he is so very weak.The chemo has made his incision from the surgery reverse it's healing process. His wound care nurse will have to examine it tomorrow and dress it because it is opening up again and that is not good news. He is still wearing his brace but hasn't had any more movement with his leg. It still only measures at 10%. He had a EKO and a EKG this week to check his heart and hearing. His heart is in good shape but he has lost 10% of his hearing. He cannot hear high pitched noises. The cisplatin can cause serious heart and hearing damage so they constantly monitor Tyler in these areas. The good news is he completed the last round of this drug last week so they are hopeful that his hearing will not worsen. The hardest part of chemo is "killing the cancer and not killing the child." They are powerful drugs!!!!!
Tyler received 2 packages today from his friends. The cross country team sent him a package along with his 8th grade friends from school. Sarah said he was so weak today he couldn't even open the packages but he enjoyed some of the notes from his friends. They really brighten his day. Thanks friends for sending them!!!!!!!!
Sarah is hoping Tyler will feel better soon. It usually takes about 11 days for his counts to completely drop and but when they start to rise again, Tyler will have a few good days. He has to peel #8 from the chemo wall and then there will be 7 more treatments to go! YIPEE!!!!!! The family may get to come to Louisville for a couple of days. They take life one day at a time and count their blessings every day.
During this season of Thanksgiving, remember the One who gives us life. Thank him daily for your family and others especially the Hanson family!
Stay close! Kim
