ALL about Caleb

chemo started yesterday after all. caleb's counts were up. he went w/ Chris to New Braunfels that evening w/ a iv hydration backpack hooked up to his port. it had a lead short enough to limit a 3 1/2 year old's movement. but otherwise, caleb was fine & walking around. the medicine (zofran) that counters the nausea was set up through it & he didn't get sick. he did pee a lot & chris said he woke up all wet in the middle of the night at 2 am to find pee under him & caleb (yuk!) & caleb woke up again at 4 am needing to pee badly. chris had a urinal but realized it was too late when he felt something wet on his leg (hee hee hee) & then heard it hit the carpet (hee hee hee-am i so wrong that i find that funny?). but that was it. everything's going great. i thought his counts were going to go down but they told chris it's not so much his counts going down as it is keeping him hydrated. the next phase after this is called maintenance where he's a normal kid & we just give him his medicines at home. at that point, i may not be blogging as frequently...
