Thank you for the prayers!

I need to start by thanking everyone for the continued prayers. I am amazed and a little shocked to share that Asher had NO PAIN after getting his last dose of Vincristine (the yucky chemo drug that previously caused the leg pain). He was dosed with it Monday of last week and I watched him closely for limping and asked him how he felt. With each passing day I was more and more confident that he was going to be fine. BUT, we need to keep praying because he got more of this chemo today and he will get lots more in the coming weeks. I would love nothing more than to see him remain pain free. He has been a little tired, taking some long afternoon naps and we had one vomiting episode (I think because he didn't get his nausea meds fast enough before breakfast one day. 90% of the time he is a crazy, active 3 year old.

This Sunday we will do home health labs and find out if his numbers are okay to move to his next phase of therapy called Delayed Intensification. Sounds fun, right? It will require a few 4 day stays in the hospital but I am pretty sure he will be getting drugs that he has already had before just at higher doses? I need to ask a few more questions. In any case, if he checks out okay on Sunday we will be inpatient Mon-Thurs. Wish us luck!!

Here are a few pictures from the last week.
