The Chemo is all done and we are settling down for the night. Mitch, mom, and I are sitting here watching Transformers. We had a long day of waiting around. He was supposed to have his spinal tap around 11AM but that didn't happen because he had breakfast and wasn't told he couldn't. So it was at 1PM when he had it, they also injected Chemo into his spinal fluid. After that procedure they started him on Elitek Rasburicase which had to be done 4hrs. prior to his Chemo, it helps to protect the kidneys. Then we had to wait for the PH balance in his urine to be right. At 9:30PM he had his first push of Chemo(Vincristine), then a 15min. drip of (Cyclophosphamide), and a handful of pills and mouthwash. He's got more drugs in him than Walgreen's. So now we are on pins and needle to see how sick he will get, if at all! I hope not!!
