Doctors in the House

I thought I should update what has been happening before we return to the hospital. Well on Friday we went up to the hospital for an LP and bone marrow aspirate. The LP should show no cancer cells. The bone marrow aspirate will show if his body has started to produce healthy cells or cancer cells. At this time it should show no cancer cells or very few cancer cells. We will get results tomorrow. These results will show how his body responded to the chemo. We did find out the neither Luke or Dallin were matches for a bone marrow transplant. The docs say as long as our bone marrow aspirate results are good they wont even consider a BMT unless he relapses! Yeah! Our appointment was at 10:00 am in the clinic and then 11:30 for the LP. Of course things were running a bit behind so by the time I got home it was about 1:30! Another day half way over. Dallin came with me to these appointments and was very well behaved. He was offered toys at every turn and we watched most of the movie the Princess and the Frog at one point. But when we got home all he wanted to do was play doctor! Him and Luke got note pads and doctor stuff and followed Critter around saying yes doctor there is cancer in his temperature! Take him to the sick unit now! We will have to use Chemotherapy! I was surprised how much they had picked up. I was also wondering if Critter ever got sick of being the patient.
