Noah is fast asleep after a long, but good day. I was a little worried about the events of today, as it started with him having a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) and a bone marrow biopsy. Maybe it was the great drugs he was given to start his day or maybe he is finally feeling better, but the day was nothing like what I thought it would be. We had a wonderful day. At about 11:00am when Mom had just left for 100 mile house, the doctor "Svetlana" came in and informed Noah and I that we were free to go. She said he was doing so well and he had just received his Chemo therapy, and that was good. We could go. Unfortunately for Noah and I we haven't really got somewhere where we want to go. Our plan is as follows: we stay the weekend, and learn from the nurses how we are supposed to take care of a boy with Leukemia. Come Monday, Noah will not have to stay in the hospital anymore, he just needs to be here to continue his treatments. This is great news, and made Noah very happy. Upon receiving this great news, we decided to make use of our new found freedom and we ventured out into the rainy Vancouver weather. We ended up at a mall, ate some donuts and returned to the hospital for a well earned rest. Our eventful afternoon lasted an hour and a bit, but judging from Noah's aura, it was time to get back. The boy is an open book and when he is tired and feeling "it", he is very obvious. Then to our delight, Opa showed up and we had a nice visit and a nice meal in the cafeteria. Noah was even able to join us there. After a shower and some medication, Noah crashed at around 8:20.
Thank you, Jesus for a great day and saving my wonderful boy! 'Nuf said.
