Well, James made it! We are rejoicing here by enjoying our regular Friday Night Pizza and movie.
James got his last dose of steroids yesterday morning, but he is still steroid-hungry. That is certainly a silver lining to the steroid thing!
Today he has eaten:
1-1/2 home-canned peaches
1/2 c. scrambled eggs
8 oz. orange juice (EIGHT OUNCES--this is a Hallelujah Record!)
TWO bananas
1 piece of celery (a first!)
1/2 homemade pieroshky with gravy
1-3/4 c. homemade yogurt (plain, with honey)
4 oz. orange juice
one of those yucky frozen-pops-in-a-bag-thing-ies :*)
a piece of bacon
5 more oz. orange juice
1/2 peach (picked off a piece of peach pizza)
a whole piece of homemade double crust pizza, stuffed with onions, tomatoes, a little bacon with cheese on top minus the crust
about 3/4 cup of Breyer's chocolate chip ice cream
I think this is a whole record day for James eating...
Truly the most amazing part of this steroid/g-tube time is that his site was a little tender this last Thursday when we got vincristine and started steroids. Yesterday, his site looked better than it has looked in about a month and James was no longer wincing every time we touched it!
To God be the glory! Thanks for praying!
