Diagnosis: Leukemia; February 9, 1989

I woke up at ten o’clock. I sure have been tired in the morning. I feel like I can’t get out of bed and get going.

Alex and I had breakfast, then I got dressed and vacuumed the house. Half way through vacuuming Alex asked me to help him build a Lego police car.

After lunch Alex and I went to the mall. Alex bought Splinter with his own money. I looked for a bed skirt but I couldn’t find one. They are pretty expensive for how much material that’s involved.

When we got home Kurt phoned Alex. Alex went over to his house to play. I watched tv and started to cook dinner at five o’clock. Alex came home before six o’clock. He said he had a good time. They took William somewhere, he was late getting home from school.

We ate dinner after six o’clock. After dinner Alex and I worked on his writing. Alex is learning to print with capital and lower case letters. Alex seems to give up very easily. I told him that Brent didn’t know how to write with lower case letters which made it harder for him. I said I want you to be able to print so you won’t have any trouble when you go to school. Alex said okay I’ll try. Alex did really well he printed the alphabet twice, first in lower case then in Capital letters.

Alex went to bed at eight o’clock. Alex was mad he said I never have any fun! Then when we went to do speak and read the batteries were too low so it didn’t work. Alex picked a prize from Grandma’s basket. Alex got dinosaur stickers which we did before he went to bed.

I watched tv and wrote in the journal. It’s after ten o’clock I’m going to bed soon.
