New Years Eve in the hospital wasn’t the worst thing … because at midnight Matthew got out of bed and started dancing with IVy (his IV pole). Then mom joined in and I was able to grab a quick pic. After toasting in the New Year with some Sparkling Cider Matthew asked me to sit with him so Mom could take a picture of us too.
Cycle 5 has gone so well. Especially since cycle 3, the same stuff, was the roughest yet.
Matthew heads off any potential nausea by taking his breakthrough meds and as a result has had quite the appetite this time around. He has actually gained weight!
Next up will be some time at home followed by a clinic next week and then some more scans to see just how little of the cancer is left.
Please pray with us that the 5 cycles have done what they are intended to do, God willing, and that there will be little or no signs of the cancer when the results of the scans come back.
Matthew is up and about, eating and playing games with Mom.
Thank you all for your continued prayers and support.
All the ongoing donations are leaving us speechless and they are truly a blessing. We don’t know what expenses the New Year will bring but we appreciate all of you for showing such love and care for Matthew as he progresses on his adventure.
May the Lord bless you and keep you!!!
