The same size pizza fed three kids yesterday and there were pieces left.... tonight, same size for Aj - about 3 little squares left! I think its great though, that he is able to eat like he does.
During the chemo today he said he could feel it more and more. This afternoon I was convinced that he would take a 20 hour hibernation nap again, but no. He's been awake and nodding off here and there, but been pretty good if I compare to last time on day 3.
Tomorrow its Neulasta shot, nasty nasty little thing... That is the shot that made him in so much pain last time. (the office visit when he was really high) Since it takes a few days for that to kick in, we have to wait until next week and see how he will feel. But we are prepared with drugs.
If you haven't already read the article that I posted in the earlier post, do it. I think the writer has written it really well. He says that chemo is like slow drying cement filling up your body, pretty much sums up how Adrian feels about it too.
After the treatment was done today and we got in the car, he said "just can't believe this is how they treat people". I don't think anyone who has not had chemo can even imagine what it is like.
I think the CIA and the U.S Intelligence Service should skip the waterboarding that they used to do and just give their prisoners a double dose of chemo. Anyone would be talking after that. And preferably, don't give them any nausea medicine. Maybe tie a ginger chew on a string in front of them, but of course not so they can reach it. Plus, if they need some more ammo, a huge Neulasta shot!
For the ones who are wondering, Nanny McPhee's tooth fell out that very same night. Yesterday morning when I woke her up, she had it in her hand. :)
This morning she came down and looked a little gloomy and told me that the Tooth Fairy hadn't been there. "I went to sleep and everything, she said". (first tooth she lost, she was going to stay awake all night so that she could see the Fairy, I told her then that the Fairy only comes when kids are sleeping)
My heart sank, I totally forgot last night to put a coin in the glass!!!!!! Quick, I had to think of something!! I told Chloe that the Tooth Fairy had sent me an email saying that she had been extremely busy last night, but she would make it tonight. Chloe did a funny face, looked at me and says:
"Does the Tooth Fairy have a computer????"
"Ehhhhhh, OF COURSE she does!!!" I yelped, trying not to laugh.
Chloe took that answer and that was it...... I thought.
This afternoon, we told our neighbor's how busy the Fairy had been and that she was going to come tonight instead. Then the question came...
"Can I see the email from the Tooth Fairy??"
I looked at Kelli and then back at Chloe, "Well, I would have showed it to you, but I erased it"
Chloe looked at me and goes, "If you don't show it to me, that means you are lying"
TOO SMART!!! But she didn't say anything else and that was the end of it!
Now she is singing this song instead:
