Day 1 of 28

We started our last block of intensive chemotherapy yesterday. Everything went fine. Sebastian received an injection of Vincristine, a one-hour infusion of PEG Asperaginase (luckily with no allergic reaction), and a one-hour infusion of Doxorubicin. He also started taking the infamous steroid tablets again. We will soon welcome the moody chicken nugget monster into our house. The freezer is stocked and ready.

We are all anxious to get through this last chemo block. We are taking it day by day, with the mindset that each day we are closer to the end. Hopefully Christmas will be a time to recover, and then the new year can start with fun kindergarten and me going back to work a bit.

Here are some pictures of the last week. I'll probably be posting more since we will be at home the next four weeks, more or less. Thanks to everyone for the nice emails and well wishes!

Sebastian in the Burgarten last weekend.


Sebastian and Kaya.

Sebastian and his homemade tool belt - all you need is a little bit of masking tape!


The first snow of the season - it already melted the same afternoon.


Stella...working on those teeth. We're still waiting for the first one to surface!

How low can she go?
