Tired & Irritable

All of us are tired and irritable. :) Grant and Trent are antagonizing each other. I think they are competing for attention most of the time. And they get it! We are constantly saying "Graaant" and Treeeent". I think Grant just gets frustrated with his situation and Trent is an easy target to vent on. And Trent just seems like he feels that things are unsure right now. He just seems a little anxious that he doesn't know what is going on. Rudy and I are just flat exhausted. Everything is happening so fast and we are just trying to keep up.
All that being said....things are going great! Grant is still getting outstanding reports from the doctors. He is handling his situation and the chemo. extremely well. He has had a little nausea with this last round. He is fine most of the time, except when he tries to eat. He says he's hungry, but nothing sounds good. He takes one bite of what we give him and says he's done. But, then he's off to play again.
We have moved up his treatments for this week so he will go tomorrow, Wed., Thurs., & Friday. (Yay, no Saturday.) We are doing something a little different with his spinal tap tomorrow. He will not be completely sedated. They will give him an oral relaxer and then numb the site. Please pray that this will go smoothly and he will not be anxious or wiggly. They will also check all of his blood counts and give him blood or platelets if necessary. We are praying that he won't need anything. They said that kids usually need a transfusion by the end of this week. We want to be careful to give God the glory when Grant doesn't need one. :)
Trent got a great report for his 1 year check-up today. He almost got out of getting shots b/c they could be harmful to Grant. Some that he got are live viruses. But, not this time. Dr. Heym okayed him to go ahead and get them. I am so thankful that our pediatricians were aware of this possible danger.
Please continue to pray. Life is pretty chaotic right now and we appreciate all of your prayers!
