Health Update
We're all either recovering from or in the throes of a cold. We're the house of runny noses and snot flying and lovely snot smears on sleeves and crankiness and unimaginably high energy.
Eliot has been asking for cream to put on his chapped lips and today asked for cream for his ear. He is amazing. That's how he told us that his ear was hurting. We took him to the clinic and sure enough his ear is bright red inside. Luckily so far he is doing fine in every other way. His labs showed a healthy cancer patient. He is energetic and basically in a good mood. His temperature has been perfectly normal.
He got to take 5 syringe-fulls of medicine tonight a total of 12.5 mL of medicine.
Please keep the prayers coming. We'd like to stay home. We'd like to keep his temperature normal. They said its entirely possible that his immune system, minimal as it is, could fight this cold and he could get through it. Fingers and toes and eyes and ears and hair legs crossed.

Sara,
Not only is it so cool that Eliot told you his ear was hurting, but it is so cool that you knew what he meant. Even when your sleep deprived. Way to go!
