We have a date for transplant!!!

13th August - once again you wouldn't want to be superstitious! The radiation is booked for the 6th - 8th August. Then he will have some very strong chemo until the date of transplant. Seth's hair is growing back as he hasn't had chemo for some time now and it so soft like peach fuzz and it is coming back quite dark. He will lose it again with the radiation and chemo coming up. For now it's a novelty with everyone touching his soft baby hair. Sienna is having her needle tomorrow - neither of us is looking forward to that little adventure! She promises me she will not scream the place down... I have my doubts! We took Seth to hospital on Tuesday for a check up. The doctors were very happy with his recovery. The shingles are almost gone now. They decided it was time for chemo so we were back in on Thursday for a 6 hour dose. It made him a bit tired and nauseas but as always he is full of beans now. It is his birthday today and we are having homemade pizzas as requested by Seth for his birthday dinner and a walk down to the park if the weather warms up a bit. A simple and quiet birthday, but he seems content with that. Seth isn't required to go back to hospital until Friday so he gets a bit of a break this week from the back and forth trips. We just need to keep him well for a few more weeks:)
