Chemo started.....

Austin went to bed around 10pm last night. We started around 9:30. We had to wait on his night time oral meds. He didn't get up until a little after 9 this morning and really didn't wake through the night. So he is pretty rested for his chemo today. He got up and ate pancakes and tried some bacon. He had a few bites of his bananas. Right now it is 10:19 so the Wiggles are on. He watched Lady and the Tramp for the first time last night and he kept calling the dogs. I think he misses his dogs already. We are still trying to get use to having a roommate. His roommate is a boy a little bit older then him maybe a few months older. They are very curious about each other. It is very cute. Some times when the little boy cries then Austin does. He is not use to have another child around. The poor little boy's pump kept going off last night so they had to mess with his lines which messed with his sleep. Other then that things are fine. Trying to keep Austin busy and on some what of a schedule. We will see how it goes. I did find out that he is having cytoxin which is the same chemo he has had. So we kind of know what to expect. I am wondering if he will do the neutropenic/fever thing. He has been doing cytoxin with topotecan so I don't know if it is the combo that does it or what. So we shall see.
