A long time coming

I know it's been a very long time with no update. So I guess it's time to update so the villagers will put down there fire sticks and pitch forks,
here is your update!

Zed had been doing really good he was starting to feel a little better after a couple of months of chemo, his Dr. even said to him on his visit on the 7th that he looked as good as he had remembered him ten years ago after finishing chemo the first time. That was good to hear, maybe things were starting to look up for him and he was slowly getting stronger and feeling better.
As the week of the 7th went on he became tired and was more nauseous then normal, when they went in for round two on the 14th they said his blood was low again (this could account for the extra tiredness and nausea) so they gave him the option to get chemo and then go for a blood transfusion or get a blood transfusion and then come back on Tue for the second part of chemo.

They decided to do the blood first, he gets his chemo at McKay Dee this is where is Dr office is, but the hospital for there insurance is Ogden Regional so they have to go there for the blood transfusion. They were there from about 3:30ish to I think my mom said 11:00. This is Zeds third blood transfusion since December so I said that if he starts to act different then his normal self its cause he doesn't have much of his own blood left.

Mom said that he was able to rest well during the transfusion so that was a plus. He seems to be feeling a little better this week. He is scheduled to receive chemo again on the 28th, lets hope his blood is where it needs to be! Thanks for all your love and support

This is the only picture I could get of Parker, he is fast! He throws a football better then most grown men.

Happy Chemo Day! I mean St.Patrick's Day!

Zed had chemo again today, and will have again next Monday. We we're happy that his blood levels were good enough to receive chemo. There still low but we will take what we can get, count your many blessings! He has been feeling pretty good lately, and has been out and about working in the shop. Here are a few pictures from the hospital.

I love this picture!!

They put a diuretic in the chemo to help flush it out of his system, which makes him have to go the the restroom about every ten minutes or so. So he has to take his little sidekick with him. He has requested one with better wheels!

He looks a little stoned in this picture.

Zed Getting Chemo

Feeling well enuogh to make faces

Monday Feb 25th

Zed had Chemo yesterday, we were very excited that his blood count was where it needed to be to receive Chemo again. His Dr. said that he looked really good. He is starting to get some color back in his face and has even gained some weight back. Mom is fating him up, and slimming herself down, there a pretty good team! There are two parts to each Chemo treatment, he received part one yesterday and will receive the second part next Monday, and hopefully will be healthy enough to continue this scheduale and recieve Chemo again in two weeks.
He has been feeling pretty good this past week and has been out in the shop working. Thanks for all your Prayers and thoughts.
