Chapter 2, The Chemo Has Started.
Posted Feb 13, 2009 8:57pm
At 6:00 pm they got the go ahead to give Travyn his first dose of Chemo. After its was mix and made in the pharmacy and check three times by three different Doctors and Nurses. They do that just to REALLY make sure its the right kind. Talk about double checking!!! lol.... I was so scared when she told us she was going to bring it in at 6:00. I started to have a panic attack and I felt like I was going to pass out. I said a prayer to myself and immeadiataly felt better and calm. I looked over at this plauque my good friend Julie gave me, and it says "Let the Lord have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you" 1 peter 5:7, I kept reading it over and over. So at 6:00 the nurse came in and gave Tray his first dose like it was just another medicine he has been taking, No big deal to her and I was sitting there freaking out. The first infusion was the Vincristine. That went really well he slept right through it. Its about 7:30 pm and she gave him the Methotrexate, that will run over a 4 hour drip. But so far he is doing so good. He is smiling and laughing at his Daddy and playing with his toys. That made me feel better and happy :). They wont give him another dose until he pee's it all out. They want to make sure this dose is completely out of his body. So around Monday or Tuesday. But you never know :/
Travyn, You are the Bravest little boy I know. You are my Hero and I cant wait until your Cancer Free!!!! Mommy loves You so much and im here right by your side until this is all over.

I'll keep you updated on how he is doing.
PRAY FOR TRAY!!!!!!!!!
