Our Christmas Eve

The protocol being followed for William's stage 3 neuroblastoma included 3 consecutive days of chemo for round 1. Needless to say, we did chemo December 23, 24 and 25th. This day, Mommy and Daddy completed training on how to administer the Neupogen injections William required following his chemotherapy to help rebound his white cell count.
Training was intense, as you can see...

Daddy takes cleaning of the vial bottle very serious. Personally, I think he just felt powerful wearing the latex gloves.

We used a rolled chuck as our mock of William's chubby thigh. Of course, we also had to entertain the little bugger through this - can you tell...


Mommy got an A+ for the practice session too. Fingers crossed the real deal goes as smoothly as the non-squirming, silent, rolled chuck cooperated for us.
