Beginning of third week of consolidation

We are now one fourth way into consolidation phase. His counts are zero. Today is another day of heavy chemo doses and it's going to be painful. He has a spinal tap AND and muscle injection among other things. Not looking forward to it at all.

His mood swings have become way too much. Either we listen to him or else he will go on a crying spree and then ultimately throw up. Sometimes it difficult to agree to either condition.

Hanging in there...

Just hang in there Nikhil and Urmila. You will get it through. We continue to pray for little Shivam.

Hang in there Nikhil and Urmi, you have just been wonderful and such patient parents and you are the greatest asset your kids have. These tough times will be over soon and you will be rejoicing back with Shivam and Meera..

Praying that you get all the strength to handle these tough times..

Praying hard for you all. Hope this goes quickly and Shivam has his health restored back. This is painful but I know you all are doing your best and your hard work will not go wasted, remember every drop of good energy counts and every good thought matters. Keep going. We are with you in spirit.
