2 Weeks Update After The 1st round of Cytoxan

Hello All

Sorry it has taken so long for me to update everyone on Makhi. Things have just been wild around here. Let me first start by saying thank-you to everyone that has been kind enough to call and ask how Makhi has been doing.

He really has done better than I could have ever imagined. Other than vomiting once or twice the day after the Chemo he has done well. His eyes have started to turn in a little his eye doctor says this can happen after a child has chemo because it puts such strain on the body. Makhi eyes had become severely crossed due to the Opsoclonus-Myoclonus Sydrome and in January 3,2008 he had eye surgery on both eyes to correct them so I just hope that he eyes return to normal after his blood counts come back up because god knows I don't want Makhi to have eye surgery again!

Only 16 more days until we all leave to Disney Land!!!!!! WE CAN NOT WAIT!!!! My girls are so excited and Makhi gets excited about it when the girls do but I don't think he really understands all the fun he is about to have. I will take plenty of picture and put them on his website when we return.

We leave Nov 18 and return Nov 25 and Makhi will have his second round of Cytoxan Nov 26. Right in time for Thanksgiving.

Makhi returns to school this week and he is so excited! Well that is all for now!
