Diagnosis: Leukemia; October 14, 1988

I woke up at ten thirty, I couldn’t believe I had slept that long. Believe it or not I was the first one up. I went to see how Alex was and he was sleeping in the bottom bunk. I had my breakfast then I got dressed and cleaned the bathrooms. Charlie and Alex woke up about the same time. They had their breakfast together, well Charlie just had coffee but he got Alex fruit cup and cereal for breakfast. Then Alex had a shower and got dressed. Alex was complaining that he was cold.

After I had finished cleaning I had a shower and got dressed. I had lunch at one o’clock. Alex waited for Charlie to come back, Charlie went to get Chow Mien. Then they both had that for lunch.

In the afternoon I paid a couple of bills and wrote Naomi a letter, then I went to mail them and get our mail. For the rest of the afternoon I typed in the journal.

Mom phoned at four o’clock and we talked for forty five minutes. She asked us to come for dinner when I told her Alex wanted to go to McDonalds for dinner. Alex said he wanted to come after we went to McDonalds. Mom said that was okay and she would she us later.

We left for McDonalds shortly afterwards, they had pumpkin buckets for $.49, so we bought one. It’ll be great for Halloween. Alex went into the playroom after we had eaten but it got a little too noisy. Their was a birthday party there as well.

Alex showed Grandma and Grandpa his new bucket, they thought that was pretty neat. Alex played while we played Trivial Pursuit, I think it’s better with more players.

We left a ten o’clock. Alex had a snack when we got home then he went to bed. I typed in the journal until eleven thirty, I’m going to bed now.
