It seems that our daily activities are becoming somewhat predictable. Our highlight of the day was meeting Connor's Chemo pal (a program sponsored by Children's Cancer Association). Connor's pal is named Nick and he brought a really cool toy bag full of fun toys hand picked for Connor. We played a game of Old Maid, and Connor colored a custom paint job on a race car craft project. Nick will be Connor's pal throughout his Chemo process. It's nice to have some someone break up the monotony of the day, and be a constant friendly face throughout the process.
The Oncologist had Connor take an X-ray to see if she could rule out anything that might be causing his back and tummy cramps. It's possible that he has some constipation from some of his medicines.
It was an extra long day at the hospital, but the ride home was peaceful with Connor looking out the window telling me about all the "Cloud Animals" he saw in the sky.
Some things that made me chuckle:
A Recap of Connor telling our favorite nurse that he could speak to animals.
Candace: "Really? that's awesome!! I need you to come to my house and talk to my cat! He lays on my head and licks my face while I'm trying to sleep".
Connor: "Well you see, it's really easy you just say meow for each length of the word"
Candace: "oh so if I want to say, "Stop licking me", I would say "Meow meowmeow meow"
Connor: "You got it!!!!"
We love Candace!! she SO understands kids (and mommy's and daddy's)
A Recap of Connor telling Dr. (Pirate Gold) Rose about his weekend
Dr. Rose "So what was the BEST thing you did this weekend?"
Connor "I got my H1N1 shot!!!"
Connor declared Dr. Rose the BEST DOCTOR EVER today.
