Adjusting to life with recently diagnosed three year old with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (as told by his mom, Michelle)

4.21.2005

Caleb's on a new drug: 6-mp (mercaptopurine). Although he's off the steroids he's still getting hunger cravings. He's screaming his head off right now! He has been eating & eating & eating all evening so I've been unable to give him the medicine so far. I need to wait at least just over an hour after he eats & an hour before going to sleep (or eating again) so that it can be better absorbed. This leaves over 2 hours without food. This is rough!!! He had wanted to go to his crib so I put him there & now he's screaming for toast. Aaaaaagggghhhh!
