What a pain

Wes has been feeling okay. He hasn’t complained of nausea. We’ve noticed that he’s more tired and has very noticeably not been eating very well. The past few days, he’s been complaining of headaches. Since he can only have Tylenol, it’s been frustrating to have to know he’s in pain and not have really anything to help. I’ve been speaking with the WONDERFUL nurse coordinators at Dr. Afify’s office, and they think we’re going to have to take Wes in for a CT scan, so now I’m just waiting for that phone call.

So far, his labs look great. That’s to be expected at this point. We will see some drops in his levels as time goes on and he receives more treatments.

So, that’s the update for today. It’s hard to have a child in pain and to feel helpless to do anything. Wes is a tough kid, but he’s still a child. So, this sucks. That is all. πŸ™‚
