Well, we are waiting for the results of Drew's Bone Marrow Bio.
...that was done on Thursday to determine if he will go to the next
phase of his Chemotherapy...I hope and pray that he will move
forward because if not he will have to endure two weeks longer of
induction which means more Steroids and delay his
treatment...Today, he is sore on his right hip from multiply biopsy
and very, very sleeping (redraws from the Dexamothsone (steroids).
Considering all things he is in better spirits and his ANC (actual
neutropil counts are at a 1500 below a 500 means...no fun,
visitors, etc.) Yeststerday, we ventured out to Randy and Jay's for
dinner and to Hines Parks light show...He loved it...he told us we
were at the North Pole but, sad that he could not see
Santa!!!
I would like to thank you...Luanne for the gift basket of wine, the
steam roller for Drew and teddy for Sarah...it sure brighten our
day...Brian and Amy I do not know what to say...U guys are super
awesome and amazing people...Now we will be able to get Drew a Art
or Music Therapist to help him understand things a little
better...most insurance companies do not pay for therapist unless u
are crazy...and we have great insurance so go figure...We got a
reference from the hospital and one might be able to come directly
to the house which will be nice on days where Drew is not feeling up
to it!!! Thank you guys this is a very special gift...
Everyone,,,we have signed up at www.carepages.com and type in Drew
Valinksi please, please post message of encouragement...we have
started this web page to keep everyone posted with treatments, pics
etc. so check it out and give typed words of thoughts we sure could
use them especially after a night of one to two hours of
sleep...
For some of you who have asked or are curious Sarah just started
cereal and is rolling and almost sitting up...but, does not like
the teething part of a 5 month old
I know some have ask What can I do or say? Well, first leave us a
message on care pages...drop a card in the mail to Drew and Sarah
to cheer them up...come over to visit Drew and Sarah (just make
sure u have not been or been around anyone sick) or Does anyone
want to dress up as Santa and visit...but, most of all pray, pray,
pray and enjoy your family this Christmas!!!
Love,
Us
