3rd & 4th day - post chemo

Currently, Isaac's chemotherapy falls on Wednesday of each week. He seems to tolerate it well considering, until the weekend following. Saturday, he starts feeling the effects, but by Sunday, it's all down hill. Saturday, he was a little bit cranky. He ate a teeny bit of random food that we offer, but no meals. Sunday the 24th, was the worst I have ever seen him. He was super clingy, and was very whiny. He was NOT feeling well at all. His color was diminishing - he looked very pale, and he had dark circles under his eyes.

Earlier that a.m., he had the worst diarrhea blowout. It literally climbed to the back of his neck. Let me remind you, he has had diarrhea for 2 + weeks! (We took in stool samples, but we are still awaiting the final culture results...) I called the on-call Oncologist, but she didn't really help much, and just advised me to watch him closely.

He is doing considerably better today. He ate a little bit of chicken soup, and some yogurt. He played a bit today, as well.

Tomorrow a.m. we go in for labs. Wednesday we have two appointments. First for his kidney ultrasound due to the high blood pressure, and then he has chemo (given his counts are okay).

He is sleeping soundly... but not for long. He tosses and turns ALL night long.
