Doctor's Again!
Daddy, I couldn't go with you to the doctor's today so Nana took you. Poor Autumn is sick again. I am sitting here waiting for my phone to ring. It seems like it is taking forever for 1 to get here. I can't wait till about 2 and you call and tell me what the DOC says. I hate the waiting. We will see what he thinks about the inhaler and how it is doing. I really hope he doesn't send you back to the hospital again. Well Daddy, I am back to waiting for the call!

Finally an answer!
Daddy, We finally found out what was causing you to be short of breath, they told us it was your liver. Your liver is so big that it is pushing up on your lung and making it hard for you to breath. The doctor said it was like a woman who is very pregnant and the baby/uterus is pushing up on the lungs and she get short of breath. They said you will feel this way time to time till you are in full remission. At least we finally have an answer and they can treat it with an inhaler. I love you Daddy and I told you this was just a little bump in the road and that is all it was. Can't wait to eat your caramel apple pie and you awesome orange sauce for the duck you are making.

DOCTOR!
Daddy, we went to the doctor today and they no more and saw you and sent us on our way to the hospital. I hate this we don't know crap. Well how about you run test and re-run test till you find out what is going on. I just hope they find out soon what is causing you to be short of breath. They are thinking now that it is GI related.

Daddy, you came over on Sunday and Isis told you she wrote you a song in her head because it would be to hard to write something like that(lol). So she starts singing. Papa I love you I love you, you are the greatest Papa. I love you I love you, you are an awesome Papa, I love you I love you you are the greatest Papa in the world. We all were crying and laughing all at the same time. She looks right at you and says you like your song Papa? You said it was the best song you ever heard she goes Good I will have Mommy write it down and then tape me singing it so you can watch me sing it all the time. O and she will write down the words so you can sing a long. It was so cute and funny. You said it made your day!

HOME!!!!
Daddy, you got to come home today. You are feeling a little better. You just couldn't stand being their any longer. You asked me when I came in today If I got to spring you. It made me think of some of the jail movies we have watched together. I was happy you got to come home today. I hated having to see you that way. I was so happy that your doctor let you come home. Cancer really sucks even tho you weren't in for your cancer this time, the doctor said that your immune system is not like it should be because of the Chemo meaning you will get sick more often this winter. You told me today you are so sick of being sick. You know that you need to keep fighting but that it is harder some days then others.I love you Daddy and stay strong!
You were so happy that your ribbon came in today! I love the site we got it from. Here is the link for anyone who wants any type of cancer ribbon

In the hospital
Daddy, we had to take you to the hospital again last night. This time it was not cancer related.You called me while we were at play practice and said you couldn't breath. Me and Sammie left and went to the hospital. They first thought you had a heart attack, they ran the EKG and it was normal then they thought that you had blood clots in your lungs. These things were not it at all. So they kept you because you couldn't breath and your spo2 was only 90 with full O2 on. Now this morning they think you have fluid on you stomach and lungs. So now it is waiting and seeing!
