Sibling Camp!

Today was the start of sibling camp for big brother Owen which is put on through the Cancer Center.  The theme today was “Space” and he thoroughly enjoyed making his alien and rocket ship.  Looking forward to more activities (all of which are virtual!) tomorrow.  

Unfortunately, Levi has had another hard day.  The vomiting won’t seem to let up so they are running more tests now to rule out any infections or other causes outside of the chemotherapy.  As a part of this, they got another MRI and thankfully it looks like his shunt is still working so that is not the cause. Phew!  We are NOT trying to set the Guinness World Record for number of surgeries so we are happy that is not on the docket for now.  As we wait for the tests to come back and medications to be changed, we’re simply focusing on rest and cuddles.  Lucky for Beth, she’s the one who will be cuddling with this cutie pie tonight and we’re all jealous!
