Diagnosis: Leukemia; April 17, 1989

I woke up just after eight o’clock to hear Alex calling me. I went into his room and Alex said he was hungry. I told him I would get him breakfast after he had a shower and got dressed.

We had breakfast and then we watched tv. Alex said he wasn’t feeling well. I took his temperature and it was up a bit. I had given him cough and cold medicine after breakfast since he said it hurt when he coughed. It had been an hour since the cough medicine so I gave him Tempra. Alex layed on the couch and I put the blanket on Alex.

After lunch Patrick came over but I told him Alex was sick and couldn’t play.

The rest of the afternoon we didn’t do much. Alex’s temperature did go back to normal.

Charlie came home at four o’clock. He made fried rice for dinner and I made us a salad.

After dinner Dr. C phoned to tell me she had the test result from the diabetes tolerance test. She said I was border line and that she wanted me to see at dietician within the next couple of weeks.

I got Alex ready for bed. Charlie was suppose to read him a story but he told Alex he was too tired. So I had to read Alex a story. Alex loves to have a store before bed, he hasn’t done speak and read for quite awhile.

I watched tv and went to bed at eleven o’clock.
