Look out medical profession, here I come! I have been promoted from nurses aide to nurse over a matter of a shot. Michael is having to take blood thinners for the blood clot in his lung and I gave him his shot last night for the first time. We started our 7th round of chemo last night. We are taking adriamycin/“red devil”, ifosamide, mesna (protectant for kidneys), venicristine, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. We will have all with the exception of the ‘red devil’ for 5 days. The red devil is for only 3 days thank goodness…

Just a note to let you know we'll be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. We came across your blog on a Google search. Our 16 year old son also has Ewing's (pelvis and legs), and has just finished his 6th round of chemo. It's wonderful to read about Michael's success - it gives us hops - and we pray that the positive rewards will continue.
