The Countdown

I guess we probably have been counting down all along, but this last leg feels like the official countdown to the last treatment for Justin. He had #11 yesterday. The usual drill. His port was stubborn, he had to perform his usual gymnastic rountine which never seems to work and they always end up taking blood from his arm. That is usually the only dramatic part and it really isn't even a big deal. Justin did feel like he was nausea last night. He felt the same way at the same time with the last treatment. I am not sure if it is because he doesn't get the usual anti-nausea drug during his treatment. We were offered extra over-the-counter medicine so he can just use that if the nausea gets worse. And of course he is tired.

We had a great time at the Tiger's game last week and at the season ticket holder's party. It was a perfect day. I know, the Tigers didn't win, but it still was perfect. We couldn't have asked for better weather, Jackson enjoyed the entire 4 hour game, and we have to admit, it was an exciting game. Just a bad ending. But we soon forgot the pitful and embarassing ending when we were standing on the field, getting our picture taken with the Stanley Cup and Paws, and eating great food. Such a memorable day. I will post pictures soon.
