During the night, Drew had some glucose in his blood, which after 2 positive results meant he had to have his finger pricked in the middle of the night to see his sugar levels - he was none to happy about that and it was a bit of a struggle to get that tiny drop of blood off his finger. In the morning Drew finished off a birthday card for 'Dad', with a bruised finger he said and did some Easter painting as well, we wont mention the paint water that ended up all over the bed :o). The anti-nausea medication controlled any nausea Drew had and he was looking forward to his Daddy and brothers coming up in the afternoon. When they arrived (all but Kurt, who was sick) we cooked some popcorn and settled down in a darkened room, just like the cinemas, to watch Milo and Otis (again) and Tom & Jerry. Drew's methatrexate finished at 4.00pm, he also had to have another drug to make him pee, as his input wasn't matching his output, with a deficient of 1.5 litres, the drug certainly did the trick and he was soon peeing like a trooper - all was going well.
