Bored and loving it

Things are going well here at the hospital. Steven seems to be tolerating this chemo very well. He hasn't had nausea medication since last night--right before they started the infusion. I was unprepared for this. I didn't even bring his homework to the hospital because last time we were here for chemo he was really out of it and not feeling well. I won't lie--bored is AWESOME! So now we wait until there is practically no trace of methotrexate in his urine and then we can go. I still don't know how long it will be--maybe Sunday or Monday. I keep thinking that it must be all the prayers going out for him--thanks everyone!

My favorite quote from him today came from this afternoon. His uncle brought a game to play with him, but Steven was in the middle of an iPad game. It must have been intense because he said, "Uhh...I'm kind of in a tight place right now." Yep--you kind of are, buddy, but you've been in them before. It may take a while, but you'll get out of this one, too.
