Day 23 (Zane/Induction)

Zane had chemo on Monday and Wednesday of this week.  Zane has been losing weight and we need him to gain some weight for the next phase of treatment.  I was talking with the doctor and nurse practitioner about him gaining weight as Zane was eating a bag of bacon.  A nutritionist came in to give ideas on how to add more calories to his diet.  Next Wednesday Zane will have his lumbar puncture and bone marrow biopsy.  Once again prayers for these results and his weight gain are greatly appreciated.
We got Zac's results yesterday and his MRD his negative (cancer is in remission).  He is responding great to treatment.  As long as they keep responding to treatment they will not need a bone marrow transplant.  Zac gets a break this week and doesn't have to go back in for treatment until Tuesday.

Having fun while getting his chemo on Monday.  

What do you mean we have to go back home.  He did not want to leave when it was time to go.
