Starting Therapy...

We started bleomycin therapy this week and will continue 3 days a week for the next three weeks. Everything is going well so far and Eli is feeling just fine.

We had a bit of a scare after monday's treatment when Eli got sick and threw up a few times monday night and tuesday morning. We were worried that the medicine was leaking and that maybe the treatment wasn't going to work.

We had a few CT scans to confirm that the system (the catheter stuck into the hollow cyst of the tumor) was still sealed and everything looks great. He feels great today too so it looks like it was just a normal kid throwing up thing and nothing else.

He was so cute, yesterday after he started feeling a bit better he kept telling everyone he saw at the hospital "I puked." He has been a real trooper and incredibly brave through all of it, Mommy and Daddy are very proud.
