Kenny Update--March 15th

We are back at the hospital with the 2nd round of chemo starting this afternoon. A quite and uneventful day. Jo and Kenny did some school this afternoon plus a couple of quizzes. After my day at the “auxiliary office” Kenny and I watched Captain America. 5 minutes before the end of the movie he was drifting off to sleep so it is an early evening for him. That is probably what I am going to do here in the next few minutes myself. They are of course pumping him full of fluids to protect his kidney and bladder from the toxins so I imagine that we will be up and down a lot.
His eye seems to be tracking better than it has and the doctor was encouraged. There is still the double vision and he is still turning his head to one side or the other to focus better. He has lost a couple of pounds in the last 3 weeks during his weigh in this morning. His appetite has not fully returned but he is eating at each meal. Jo is starting to use the line from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer where Mrs. Clause says “Who ever heard of a skinny Kenny? Eat…Eat”! It got laughs from him 10 years ago and still is making him chuckle today.
I had a rather unproductive work day due to PC issues that I was able to work thru after 3 very long hours. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to get thru several of my to do items for this week. As always we appreciate all of you and the prayers you have lifted up on Kenny’s behalf. Thank You!
