Diagnosis: Leukemia; October 5, 1988

I woke up at nine o’clock to hear Charlie and Alex fighting. Alex always gets really irritated when he starts the beginning of his schedule. I find that the less you talk to him the better he is. I made breakfast for Alex and myself then I had a shower and got dressed. Alex said that he wasn’t feeling good and that he couldn’t go to his class today.

I phoned Heather to ask her about the Bactrim. On the bottle it says take one pill daily three times a week. Previously it was two pills daily three times a week. Heather said she would talk to the doctor and if there was any change she would phone me back. She said to follow what was on the bottle.

I got ready to go to the mall at twelve thirty then Alex says that he wants to go to his class. Alex said that he wanted to have lunch first. I told him that if he wanted to go to the class we would have to leave right now. Alex got really mad about that but I told him that I was mad that he had decided to go now and not tell me before so he could have something to eat.

We got to the class on time and Alex took a snack with him in the car. I did a few errands while Alex was in the class then I came back and read in the car until it was time to get him. We came home right away, Alex said he was really tired. They had painted dinosaurs so Alex said he was glad that he had gone to the class.

Alex watched TV when we got home, I did my typing. We ate dinner at six o’clock and after dinner we watched TV. Alex went to bed at eight o’clock. I watched TV and went to bed at eleven o’clock.
