Day 222

Today we got our second flu shots. Ouch. We also got to visit Mom and see her new digs. Dinks has a slight bit of eczema but Auntie J & Grandma B have purchased a boatload of supplies to ameliorate this rash.

We are really starting to sit up on our own now and babble endlessly. It's fun to be a twin.

Mommy update:

Day 5 of chemotherapy was pleasantly uneventful. A therapeutic massage, a lack of a need for any transfusions, a visit from two sweet dumplings, messages and photographs of hope, strength and triumph from near and far made this day another small miracle.

Day 221

Grandma B and Aunt Jessie played with us this morning. We watched baby signing time. Daddy took us on a walk. Then Uncle Tom and Aunt Deanne came by to help daddy with bath time. Uncle Tom even showed daddy that Rilka loves free falls!

Mommy Update:
Day 4 of treatment went smoothly. A new cozy room, 2 units of blood and sunshine through the windows kept the spirits high and the oxygen flowing. Good company and the Oscars helped pass the time.
