Today was a short visit to the clinic for Cole's 6th treatment. His immune system was much, much stronger today so the Dr.'s were confident in giving him his chemo today rather than last Monday. It is catching up to him now as he is starting to lose his hair, taking after his Dad. On a very good note, he gained 6 oz. this week, putting him at 8lbs 1 oz. today. The Dr.'s and nurses couldn't stop commenting on how healthy he looks!
No visits to the clinic next week except for blood draw drop-off's! Friday Cole will be in the hospital for his next chemo treatment since the clinic is closed.

After a CT scan, MRI, x-ray, ultrasound, and a biopsy, he was diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Hystiocytosis (LCH) at 3 days old. It affects his skin, liver and lungs. He completed treatment of 1 year of chemo and steroids and after a liver biopsy in late November '09 confirming no active disease, he is officially in remission. Today he is a very happy boy, excited to explore the world.
