more chemo

Well, Delayed Intensification is underway. Tuesday's chemo and sedation all went very well. In typical exuberant Ethan-fashion, he went sprinting down the hallway at the hospital on Tuesday to get to the elevator. Who has time for a mom just wanting to capture the moment?

Taking a look at the "forest" while we waited to meet with his team.

We've got another chemo day tomorrow (Friday 8/1) - this time Ethan will be receiving the chemo that can often cause an allergic reaction, so prayers to cover his treatment tomorrow are appreciated. After tomorrow his next chemo treatment will be on Wednesday (8/6).

So, we are back in the swing of all that chemo brings. Tonight we had a chance to go visit Ethan's school and meet his new teacher and assistant teacher that he will have this year. School starts August 18th, but we will have to play it by ear to see when Ethan is ready to go back. I was really thankful to have some time tonight for Ethan to meet his teacher and revisit his classroom, since he was only able to spend a handful of days in school since January.

Oh, and some really great news?

Grandma Sheila will be back tomorrow. Tomorrow! This has been the longest stretch we've gone (2 months) without a live-in grandma and so we are thrilled that my mom is back tomorrow to stay for a while.

Thanks for all of your continued prayers for Ethan and all of us!
