Kevin & Jordy enjoy the Beaver game ~

11/2
Kevin was able to come spend Friday night with Jordy while I got a little time away from the hospital in our camp trailer in Wilsonville. Yesterday Jordy was able to leave the hospital on medication that counteracts the chemo until it clears his body. The levels were high enough that we had to go back to Doernbecher for a blood draw today. We decided to stay in Wilsonville for the night. I headed to bed early while Kevin and Jordy watched the Oregon State game. I was able to listen to the game and the commentary from my men. It was pretty entertaining.

Today Jordy’s Methatrexate level was low enough to discontinue the other medications. It will be great to sleep all night tonight. Wednesday we will head back for another round of Methatrexate. This week will be exciting (not quite as entertaining as Halloween) because the Candlelighters provide a special dinner on the first and third Wednesdays of the month. It is usually pizza and pasta. Jordy likes checking in on those Wednesdays and getting dinner before the chemo. It is really generous of this group to provide these special dinners.

I am planning on watching Jordy’s fourth grade teacher coach at the state volleyball tournament on Friday. It will be a nice break for me (and Jordy). He will be well taken care of by the nurses during my absence.
