Alex woke up before seven thirty. I made him breakfast he still likes hot cereal with brown sugar.
We took Alex to the hospital. Dr S wanted to check Alex’s blood count. I told her Alex has a burn on his arm and there is a blister. She asked the chemotherapy nurse if they could do anything but Martina said there’s nothing they can put on it. She said if Alex likes ice on it that was okay.
Dr. S said Alex’s blood count still wasn’t up 100%. So she said that we could increase his medication, 6MP (Mercaptopurine) to ¾ of a pill and Methotrexiate to 3 ½ pills.
After the hospital we went for Dim Sum. We got home before one o’clock. Alex had fallen asleep on the way home but he woke up when we got home. He was pretty upset when we got upstairs. He started to cry for no reason. I decided he really need a special present, I gave him the Fisher Price Birthday cake (fun food). His face really brightened up when he got it. We played with it all afternoon.
We had dinner at five o’clock. Alex went to bed at eight o’clock. I watched TV and went to bed at eleven o’clock.
