Wednesday was Payton's last day of Chemo so
we took in a cake for the nurses and doctor's that have taken
such great care of Payton. Payton's ChemoPal, Mike, gave
him a gift card to the Lego store for Christmas so, he saved one to put together with Mike on his last treatment. They, well I guess I can only speak for Payton,
had a really fun time.
Payton was able to do all the "work" this time.
He put in the heparin, did his blood draw, and whatever else they put in his
port before he get his treatment.
He ended on a good, fun note. We will be going
back on the 10th for his MRI and
his last regular appointment.
After that it will be every 3 months for MRI's unless there is a change.
We can't thank Doernbecher Hospital and the
Hemotology/Oncology
team enough for
their kindness and care they
gave Payton this past year.
We will miss them but we hope
we will never see them again too.
A HUGE thank you to Mike and his sacrifice of time
and taking off of work
to come every other week to play
on the hospital floor with a boy he didn't even know.
What a difference he made in Payton's
chemo treatments. As Payton said,
"he made chemo fun".
That is the best thing a mom could ask for.
So, endless thank you's Mike.
It is hard to believe that is will be a year
on Saturday that he was diagnosed.
Thankfully, it has gone by
really fast.
We have been extremely blessed by so many
people and can't begin to thank you all, but please
know that you have made us better people.
THANK YOU!
May this next year be a year of health and healing for EVERYONE!

Honking his kazoo and shooting missiles at Mike's ship while getting his chemo.
Putting together his Toy Story green army men Lego.
Payton with his wonderful Nurse Practitioner, Kathy. She is AMAZING! He's looking a little scruffy...in need of a haircut but his hair has thinned and is really hard to cut and he doesn't want it buzzed (the way I like it).
The Christmas looking cake I ordered. I didn't really think about the color combo when I ordered it.
