Hold Fast

Another visit to the pediatric oncology clinic at the Yawkey Center at MGH, Massachusetts General Hospital for bloodwork today.

All systems, counts, values remain normalized, right down the line after five cycles of chemotherapy. This includes the cancer tumor markers of AFP and HcG. I find it very interesting to see the effects of the Neulasta injection that I administer to Orion. The clinic does not need me to tell them if I gave it correctly, they see it in the numbers.

I do not believe in magic or jinxing so I feel fine saying that we have come this far without vomit or the need for an infusion of blood. Remarkable!

Back to the clinic on Friday to look once more into the palantir.
