Brenan was released from the hospital early today! We had a nice lunch over at my parents' house and now he is home again, resting. He has a follow up appointment later this week to run some blood tests and he will probably go in for some outpatient intrathecal chemo treatments over the next few weeks. He will need to return to the hospital in about three weeks for Course B of the Hyper-CVAD regimen.
We are lucky that Brenan is feeling so well after nearly one week of intense treatment. He is wearing his Sea Bands on his wrists which are probably helping a great deal with nausea. He has a bit of peach fuzz growing on his head after shaving it last month. However, the doctor said he will probably lose a lot more of his hair after a few days, as it takes some time for this side effect to occur.

Was glad to hear you got to come home today, Honey. I talked to my Mom earlier today, and she told me she got an "email" from you. I was surprised by this, as the folks have talked about getting a computer for years but have never made the leap. I couldn't help but think that if they had gotten one, and she had an email account set up, surely she would have told me right off. So I said, "You got an 'email' from him?" She replied, well, yeah... I guess you call it a text message. He 'texted' me on my phone." :-)
My Mom can be so cute sometimes. You do know she and Dad are crazy about you and your family, right? They absolutely adore all of you... and so do I.
I also have heard that you and Mom have a notorious reputation as card cheaters! ;-) For shame! I really can't blame you, though... ol' Peggy has roped my boys into cheating at cards to clean my clock on several past occasions. LOL
Lots of love and best,
Ol' cousin Jodi
Wait a minute...you're a cheater? I never knew you were a cheater! Where did my beginner's luck com efrom ? Was it just good enough to even beat a chaeter? Hmmm. now that the truth is out you better watch out next Christmas!
