I can't say enough how appreciative of all of the kindness we've been shown, we've gotten meals dropped off (at least three plates of thanksgiving meals, none of which H showed much interest in, but I put a hurting on them). H has been able to spend afternoons with friends, which allows me to continue working, cards, prayers, positive energy, well wishes, and a couple of monetary donations as well. We're immensely thankful for everyone's kindness.
C (and by extension J) seem to be stuck in the hospital for some undisclosed period, we first thought they'd be coming home on Friday, then Saturday, then by Sunday we figured they'd be there through Monday's chemo session, now we're hoping for Wednesday if we're lucky. At least they're in a location where they can take care of C if he has difficulty, but I/we miss having C and J here.
Grandma and Grandpa braved holiday traffic and came down after thanksgiving for a week to week + 0.5 stay. Unexpected and quite nice, as that reduces some of the burden on J and me, plus H gets new play toys, err I mean care providers.
We've taken some pics while C and J are in the pen, but the camera is stuck there as well. Luckily Grandma brought her camera with her, so I've liberated a couple of pics from their trip to the hospital today. It was also an extra special visit since it was the first time C got to meet his Gandpa (may there be many more).
I'll leave you with a selection of pics:
Apparently teeth don't stop for chemo
We're extremely happy to see C enjoying some toys again
Mommy gets some cuddle time
H was trying hard to blow up the "balloon"
Hey, how did Grandma get her to stay still and smile?
At first C gave grandpa some serious inspection
C made him work for it
But eventually C gave Grandpa the stamp of approval.
Dr H getting suited up
H exhibiting some excellent chair side manners
And H striking a pose, she made Grandma work for this one
