Day +7

After 2 1/2 weeks in the hospital, I came home for the night.  Timothy is feeling much better and was okay with staying with daddy tonight.  This is him way past his bedtime (around 10 pm), jabbering away :).  He voice seems a little better today and we can hear him.  Daniel wasn’t too pleased with him not sleeping… oh well.

Good news, the doctor seems to think the worst is over!  So a few nights ago, when he had a rough night, THAT must have been the rock bottom.  He did not need any pain meds during this time :).  We are SO thankful it wasn’t too bad.  My little guy has a pretty high threshold for pain… plus the mucositis was very mild.  Now, we monitor for GVHD and his fluid retention along with his organs. 

So what did I do coming home?  I cleaned.  It’s very therapeutic for me.
