No more stick

Since our last post, we went through the worst of the last treatment before maintenance. Jake keeps reminding us that there are no more sticks. That's what we call giving him a shot in the leg. His count was low on Monday as expected. We couldn't do Jake's favorite, the buffet. It's bad to eat food that has been sitting out if you have low immunity. We also couldn't get him close to people. It was great seeing him gradually coming out of chemo and feeling better.

Jake's verbal skills still amaze us and others who meet him are just as surprised. Jake is going through a bowling phase where he wants to go bowling all the time. He wants to bowl on the WII, watch bowling championship on TV and do bowling games on mom's computer. He also wants to constantly listen to Greenday. His personality is definitely showing through.

We will start potty training this week.
