Well its a new year and defiantly a new energy in the air. I feel good about things. Elijah was so prepared, and felt glad that this was the last time for Chemo. Traditionally before we go into our room, we talk with his Oncologist. She had said hopefully this round will go well, most likely Elijah will have to have a blood transfusion (Funny). She also said after this round we would have a scan with in two weeks to see how its going. Then we will talk about what WE will do next. Like we didn't have a choice. She said that we would have to have surgery to take out remaining tumors. I didn't like the sound of that, neither did Elijah. I would hate to have him do another surgery. Well I guess we will all see what the scans show then.

We here taken to our room and then Chemo is started about 2 hours after. Elijah had his oils, his crystals. I said a prayer, he started his breathing. All was well. Elijah sailed through, with only one moment of nausea. I gave him Nux Vomica and he was all better. He did feel a little more tired on day two. Day three he was so ready to go home.

A nurse came in to do his vitals for the last time, and saw his yogurt. She asked if it was any good, she hadn't see it before. I told her, "Elijah says its good. Plus there isn't any sugar in it." I said "you know sugar feeds cancer?" She was like, wait, what? She had never heard of that. Maybe I help plant a seed or at least have here seek out information about it.

The Nurses up there at Doernbecher are amazing. They are all so sweet and really they do all the work. Elijah was blessed that way. To have caring nurses taking care of him.

Last day Elijah's nurse gave him a lanyard that said Chemo Grad on it. We walked up to the front they sang him a song and he got to ring the big bell. Letting others know that there is hope, and kids can get through. Of coarse I got all teary eyed. The drive home was nice, no crazy weather.
