Mmmmmmmm, sweet thumb
Ohhhhhh, sweet thumb, where have you been?Last night was a good night and as you can tell from the photo, Cutler has been reunited with his best friend, aside from Mason that is. Miraculously, despite the lack of ability to fight off infection, Cutler’s congestion that has been around for over a month now has been gone for the past day and he couldn’t be happier. He never really was one for a pacifier and survived without the thumb, but is quite happy to have him back in his life.
Last night was fairly uneventful, except that he had to have oxygen added after the late night chemo run as his pulsox was dropping. Fortunately the doctors decided that an oxygen “blow” was sufficient and so no cannula was required…making Cutler and his nose very happy. This morning he was put back under to perform another spinal tap in order to test the fluid around the spine as well as to apply some more chemo to help kill off any more disease in the spinal fluid. Still waiting on the results, but Cutler has fully recovered and is doing well as you can see in the other picture below (it’s 2 for 1 picture day)…without the help of oxygen. Looks like the only time oxygen will be required, for now, is during chemo activities. Yeah, no oxygen!

Good bye oxygen!
The bib says it all! He is a little angel. Love you guys!
