Big Day

We went in this morning for Logan's spinal and chemo. He was a trooper, but it was rough going for a little while. Each time he goes in for the spinal puncture and they sedate him, he gets more and more emotional. He used to be just super giggly, but now he varies from giggling to sobbing. It is pretty heart breaking, but once the sedation wears off he is the same happy boy. He was feeling pretty good, so we decided to go ahead and go up to the Make a Wish event. It was pretty crazy, and they watched out for him since he had just finished treatment and was tired. He had a wonderful time, thanks to our Wish volunteer, Nancy. She was amazing and helped him separate, go in, shop, sit on Santa's lap, and overall just have a great time. He stayed perky, and did not have any trouble. We then grabbed some lunch and drove home. In the car, he seemed to crash and get a little grumpy. But then he fell asleep and all was right again. He was so tired that he did not even wake up when I took him out of the car (that has never happened!). Logan did wake up a little when I took his boots and coat off, but then just snuggled back into me. Then I took a chance and took him into his room to lay down on the bed. This would normally make him startle awake and claim he did not want to take a nap, but this time he just smiled and said "Thank you Mommy." He curled up, and stayed asleep for a good nap. Hopefully this will be an uneventful evening and weekend with no ill effects from his treatment.
