One of Aidan's molar has been loose for awhile. He would continually tell me how it could move this way and that. Monday he said that it was only being held by a stringy piece of flesh and that his tongue could slide right underneath it. He finally decided to just YANK it out. My biggest fear was all of the bacteria being kicked around in his mouth, he did a really good brushing and mouth rinse. Now he is telling me two of his other molars are loose. GREAT!
Aidan has his week of Nelarabine it is suppose to be the last dose of this chemo but all the others are still continuing. Yup so he is hooked up for the week but his friend Jordan is suppose to make sure nobody bumps into Aidan and his VAD or DAV as he likes to call it. Aidan gets to the hospital at 3:30 has some Ondansetron(anti nausea Meds) that cost twelve dollar a piece not covered like the chemo. It seems kind of silly or should I say stupid since the chemo makes you feel nauseated so you need the Ondansatron. Aidan takes it every 8 hours.
Okay so the kids actually LIKE going to the hospital. Aidan gets his chemo that is going to make him better in the end. The kids get to play loads of video games on every possible gaming device. The Nurses, Doctors, Social workers, Child lifers, front Oncology crew, Balding for dollars-Suzane and Dan and all of the staff are AWESOME! Aidan gets to go to Teen Group, Brandan gets to go to Sibling group(which unfortunately is ending soon). All they need is a swimming pool. SO the other thing that puts a smile on their faces is Starbucks. Brandan with his white mocha icy drink and Aidan with gets his tall steamed vanilla milk in a grande cup with extra whip cream and caramel drizzle. It really puts a smile on Aidan's face when he sees one of the barista's because he doesn't have to say what he wants she just knows.
