Yes! Our tree went up on Friday night. The challenge is always to get it up early enough so you aren't turning right around and taking it down. The pets have left it alone pretty much, although the cats do like to sleep on the tree skirt. By the end of the season, my pretty red tree skirt will look almost white! At least they aren't climbing the tree! I had a cat growing up who would sleep in the tree, about 3/4 of the way up. You would walk by and see these yellow eyes peering out at you. He never knocked a single decoration off though.
O.k. enough of my trip down memory lane. This was Gavin's off week of chemo so hopefully his body will have a chance to restore some and his counts won't be low when we go in on Thursday. He did make an unexpected trip in to see Dr. Sharma. The antibiotics have worked in reducing the swelling completely and eliminating most of the discomfort but now Gavin actually has another piece of dead bone poking through. It feels a little like deja vu! Best case scenario is that the bone will just work it's way out or wall itself off enough that Dr. Sharma can just flick it out. Worst case scenario is that the doc will have to go in and dig it out which means another outpatient surgery. We are really praying that doesn't have to happen because we don't want to have to delay chemo treatments at all. We have an appointment in a few weeks to check-up on it's progress.
Have a great week!
Love and blessings,
Maria
