Jimmy usually gets the extra 'orange chemo' at the start of a new cycle but his white blood cell count is still too low, so to give him some recovery time he only had the normal chemo and will have the extra one on Tuesday. This was good news for the children as it meant there wouldn't be the posibility that he is sick over the weekend while they are all here. This weekend is the best that they have seen him since February. Jimmy is doing so well at the moment and feeling very positive. Apart from feeling a little tired this evening we are keeping an eye on a runny nose and taking his temperature every two hours just to make certain he is not in any danger of infection.
We realised again last night that the kids are all getting big as in spite of an on weekend, we were the only two at home last night and mom's taxi was clocking the miles. Tonight is one of those rare occasions when all 5 of them are here. Boy, the house is busy. Lunch and one round of tea and the dishwasher is almost full.
