A good day

We took Kaesea in today to check in with his doctor regarding his reactions to the chemo so far and her opinions on continuing this form of chemo or moving to another.

Good news: Kaesea has gained a bit of weight this week. He's 9.58 lbs (up from 9.38 last week). That's surprising to me, as he did have a bit of diarrhea last night (poop talk -- can't be helped). We always love it when he gains weight, so yay!

We decided to go ahead with another round of the same chemo tomorrow, but at a slightly reduced dose. We'll watch him this week and see how he handles it. Even though he had a few days of lethargy, reduced fluffitude, and some GI troubles, he's been at Full Fluff for the past two days, so he did recover. And the weight gain is good.

So fingers crossed for tomorrow's treatment and I'll be sure to post updates. Thank you, as always, for tuning in.
