We're really proud of Francesca right now. She left for Italy yesterday. Traveling alone, she transited the airport in Zurich, got a new boarding pass, went through security (with diabetes supply filled backpack), and got to her gate on time to make the connection to Venice.
She was met at the airport by our friends the Palomos and we received an email entitled "The Eaglet has landed". Let the fun begin in Italy.....and let the peace begin at home :)
Before the Eaglet made her maiden voyage across the ocean, Carson went to the clinic for a counts check. ANC is up, but dosage of 6MP and Methotrexate is going down.
Dr. L is referring to this particular dosing schedule as homeopathic because he'll be getting so little of the chemos. To be exact, 1/4 tablet of the 6MP - a new record for us and just 2 tablets of methotrexate (also a new record). What can we say? The boy is sensitive to the meds, even the small doses effect him.
We go back again to see how the current dose is working out. If counts are still down, we are considering just sprinkling him with 6MP dust and calling it a day......!!!!!
