September 28, 2012

Here we go, back to NYC. I know I reported that we were going up there no matter what this week, but we were all very surprised when Clayton's HAMA results meant we would be going for treatment! We were expecting another HAMA positive. But of course as this child all ways does, he surprised us. So we head out tomorrow and will start his 2nd and final round of inpatient, high-dose 3f8. After this round, we will be doing the standard dose which is less intense and all outpatient. So this week is another milestone and one we will be happy to put behind us.
Before we dive into another intense and no doubt unpredictable week of treatment though, we have reserved a ZipCar and plan on heading out of the city on Sunday. If you have to go to the northeast during the fall, you might as well make the most of it right? That was my thought. We are going to go apple picking, find ourselves a pumpkin patch and a corn maze and have a fall family fun extravaganza! Yea, yea, I'm being a bit of a cheese ball, but I am pumped about visiting up there in the fall; smack dab in the middle of the foliage, apple season and the pumpkins! This will be heaven for me. It will definitely help balance out the stress the week will bring for me. If Clayton is feeling OK next Sunday we might take another excursion, but that is a big if. It should be really fun for him though.
Well off to bed for now. More tomorrow!
