Day +2

Thank you to everyone that has been writing to William and sending cards.
William is really struggling with the expected side effects from chemo, the worst of which is the blisters in his throat.

Unfortunately, William has also been struggling with severely high fevers of 40+ C/ 104+f. To complicate things a little further, c-diff has once again returned and this causes tummy cramping and discomfort.

I am so thankful for this medical team. Everyone here here has been absolutely wonderful and even through the latest hours of the night, in William's worst condition, the on-call doctor has been a constant kind support to us. The nurses, social workers, volunteers, child life team, teachers, phsycologists and doctors are AMAZING and I am truly grateful to all of them for all the compassion and love that we have received!

William is spending most of his time in a narcotic induced sleep, and although I don't like seeing him like this, I know that this is the most comfortable thing for him.

This is Wiliam's journey and we will keep on keepin' on with God in our Hearts and courage in our souls
