This week, Gabriel had his last IV chemotherapy treatment. He had his mediport taken out last month, so this time they had to do the blood draw, and chemo administration into his arm. It was the first time he's had an arm poke since he was first diagnosed in the hospital. That was a nightmare. I am so thankful we're past it. Later in the week, he'll be done with chemo altogether!! PTL! Gabey's been in treatment for more than 3 years. It is a little nerve wracking though, because we won't have the umbrella of protection that the chemo gave. He will be getting his blood counts checked every month after this, to make sure the Leukemia isn't coming back.
My world is not very big. I have a home and family. I am a child to my Savior, a mom to my 2 boys, a wife to my husband, and a best friend to my sister. I love my little world and wouldn't trade it for anything. What else is there than to love and be loved, to care for and be cared for, to teach and be taught?
