February 19th -Day +13 Second entry

Dr. has been in today and say that Ryan looks good...
The Ultrasound has come back and there is no sign of the Adveno Ocusual Disease...phew....
She said that once the bone marrow know where to go , it makes it's home there and then creates the new cells....
We think the mucositis is going away slowly, so it is possible that some of the cells have started to come up and have gone to fight the mucositis and have not hit the blood steam yet....so we wait....Mira, Ryan docotor is very calming....she make me feels so much better....she explains things in a way that makes sence and you can understand as a parent....Ryan really like her to..

Ryan has tried an orange popsicle for me thie morning, did not go very well...He played with it more than anything.

We also told him in order to go home, he will have to eat and drink again....so we started with trying to get him to swallow his own saliva, instead of spitting it out....it worked he is swallowing on his own...the only time I give him the bucket is if he has to throw up.....yeah Ryan ...you are doing so well.

He also had two sips of Apple Juice and swallowed it....Thank you Dave, you know how to get our son to do stuff....

I am going to order a whole tray of dinner tonight and see if he will eat something...easy things that slide down and we will let you all know how that goes tomorrow....

Have a good evening everyone...

  4. Ryan you are a cutie pie. Throwing your jello at your mommy I bet you two had fun. I'm so happy to hear you drank some apple juice and I hope you try to eat some of your dinner. Enjoy!
    Sue, I'm so glad Mira the doctor explains Ryan's condition in simple form.
    I hope you have a good night. Maybe talk to you before bed.
    Love you
    Tina
