What is Ewings sarcoma?

-  May 22, 2006  -

     I just wanted to let everyone know the latest.  Joe came home Sunday from his latest five night chemotherapy treatment.  He did very well with no vomiting and not much nausea.  He even ate pretty well on Saturday and when we got home on Sunday.  We had to stay a little later on Sunday than we originally thought because Joe needed to have a transfusion because his hemoglobin was low. But that worked out better than having to go back later this week to have it done and gave us one more chance to watch Elmo Visits the Doctor (I lost count around the 12th time we watched it).

Joe is also walking pretty well with his cast.  He is a little unsteady
(mostly due to the weight of the cast) but seems to be progressing pretty well from his fractured leg.  He goes to see Dr. McGrath (the orthopedic surgeon) today but I think the plan is to leave the cast on for at least another week.
