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

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SIS!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!
(ok donna, i know your birthday was yesterday but i just logged on to post today so pleeease forgive the belated banner. hope you like the shirt! & tell my brother he better have treated you well yesterday or i'll have to do some ass kicking next time i see him :) )
caleb's doing MUCH better with that tylenol 3. yesterday he attempted walking & he's walking like crazy this morning. he's very stiff. his knees don't bend very much so when he walks his butt sticks out & so does his belly. it's funny to watch. i'm just glad he's getting back to his old self. don't know if i mentioned it or not but his chemo won't start until the 22nd. chris is gonna take him & spend the night w/ his mom in new braunfels that mon,tue,wed,& thurs. then they'll probably come back to del rio for the weekend & go back the 29th (monday thru thurs) or the 30th (tues thru friday). that hasn't been made clear yet... i need to go through the notes to see what affects the drugs are gonna have on him. when caleb was first diagnosed, we were given a huge notebook in the H.O.T.s (hematology, oncology, transplant) ward that contains lots of information on his illness. i thought that was very nice. it's my bible & i keep all the printouts of his counts in it & need to refer to it from time to time.
also, don't know if i mentioned this either but we've finally moved to my aunt sharon's house. alot of our things are stored at my grandparent's house. i hope to have a garage sale when caleb gets better. i can't wait for him to get better!!! i want to take them out to fairs & kid-friendly goings-on around the city. i'm glad he'll be able to go trick or treating (he should at least). he'll need september to recuperate & october should be back to normal. i bought him this cool power ranger outfit for halloween. he's gonna love it!!! caitlyn is into princesses right now so i'll have to find her one.
update on that medical bill from the kiddoes births that i was reported to the credit bureau for...i think the ethics people found something cause when i called the collection agency, it seemed as if the $2,000+ bill was deleted, at least momentarily, until all this mess is resolved. i wouldn't be surprised if something illegal had been going on.
