Diagnosis: Leukemia; July 3, 1988

I woke up at nine o’clock. I figured both Alex and Mitch would be up, so I would make pancakes for breakfast.

Alex and Charlie had just gotten up but Mitch was still asleep. I told Alex to let him sleep. Alex told me he was surprised to see Mitch in bed he thought that he had already left. I told him Mitch would be going home today and that we would be taking him to the ferry.

After breakfast I phoned to let them know which ferry he would be on.

Mitch woke up around eleven, he said he had watched wrestling until early in the morning. No wonder he woke up so late.

I had made pancakes earlier and we had eaten them. I started to make Mitch his and promptly over cooked them. I hope Mitch didn’t mind.

Mitch and Alex played video games until it was time to go. I did the dishes and tided up the house.

We put Mitch on the three thirty ferry. I was sad to see him go. I’m very fond of him, he’s such a nice kid. I had noticed that he had changed a lot, in the fact that he seems a bit bitter. Mitch gave me the impression that he wished he hadn’t had to move. I had taken him to see Mom and Dad’s new house and he told me how lucky we were to be living so close.

From the ferry we went out for dinner and came home. Alex rode his bike outside for awhile. I tided up the house and got Alex ready for bed at eight o’clock. I watched TV and went to bed at eleven o’clock.
