Andrew went to the Dr on Friday to see if things had improved from Tuesday when we started the IV treatments on top of the tube feedings.  His blood counts had all dropped, and he was still vomiting a lot.  His fatigue has gotten so bad that we had to order a wheelchair for him for whenever he is up for any prolonged period of time.  We tried a new anti-nausea medication which had the opposite effect and let’s just say Friday night was very unpleasant.  Saturday and Sunday went better still vomiting but have now added diarrhea and times of discomfort.  The doctors have decided we need to have him admitted today to try to get him back to a good place.  I will update when I know more.  Thanks for all the comments and fun things people have sent, he loves them!
