Due to a bad cough.
When he came back from school on Monday he told me that 16 of his classmates were sick and that they didn’t go to school. I think he has a total of 25 classmates…
He started coughing that same day and this morning his oxygen saturation was a little low.
So we’re back at Six West. His X-Rays look OK.
We’re at room 606 which brings back a lot of memories. Oddly enough Andy was happy when the doctors told him they wanted him to stay.
Our signs are still there! Looking out the window I can see the signs that Andy and I posted at the Jimmy Fund Clinic window (across the street from Six West) more than 2 years ago! We made the signs on big pieces of yellow paper the first time he was discharged from Six West after his transplant. Talk about graffiti! The signs are strategically placed where nobody can see them from the clinic and they are visible from every window at Six West.
One of them says: “Andy sends bugs and kisses to Six West”
And the other: “Kelli + The Worm Rock – Andy”
I wonder how many children have received stem cells here since Andy’s infusion…
I’m doing a phrase count:
“I’m just going to do some vitals” – 4 times
“Do you need anything” – 5 times
“Haven’t seen you in a while – that’s a good thing” – 3 times
The marathon training schedule has 15 miles for tomorrow. I hope we have a quiet night here.
