So to summarize this week….Saturday Andrew felt much better and was determined to beat all of Taylor’s scores on the Wii Fit (pictures below sorry for the fuzziness, he was moving fast).  The funniest was when I came in and found him sitting on the board and I asked what he was doing and he said “snowboarding,” I pointed out that don’t you usually stand and he replied, “no, I can’t do it standing so I can sit doing it.” Too funny!  On Sunday we realized that his nose hose was out of this intestine again when he threw up formula so knew we would need to replace it once again.  So Tuesday we went in for his Vincristine chemo, we found out that he droped 2.5 pounds in a week :0(  We are starting a new medication to help digest the food he is eating and hopefully less throwing up.  After we finished with his doctor we went to our family doctor and Andrew was able to reunite with his family doctor, Perry Brown, and update his favorite nurses on his progress.  While were were there I found out that I have a strep infection in my kidneys how does that happen?  I mean really?!  Then we went to pool therapy, which was a first for me.  Andrew was an animal!  I think he did more exercise with more enthusiasim then I ever have.  Then we went back to the hospital for the tube placement.  He really is getting to be a pro at it.  He has had rough mornings, and is more fatigued during the day but other than that he is still smiling through it all. 

Yesterday we had some sad news, a very good friend almost family member, Nadine Stewart was diagnosed with breast cancer.  She has been such an amazing support for Andrew as well as Taylor and myself.  I ask that you please include her in your prayers.  Once again thank you so much for the love and support from all who follows Andrew’s fight against this monster.
