Clint had a pretty rough night/morning today :( He hadn't been able to sleep hardly at all and then around 4 am he just started puking & puking! It lasted until about 11 and he's been doing alright since then. He has no appetite at all and so he has barely eaten anything today. He is finally sleeping right now, which is good because he was exhausted, but now I'm worried he won't sleep good again tonight. But hopefully he will be able to get a good night sleep and have a much better day tomorrow. We have actually been really lucky that he has felt good this long. Most people get super sick on radiation and chemo but he has just taken it like a champ.
So Clint was feeling pretty crappy but then we had a special visitor that made everything a little bit better!
Noah loves to climb up in the bed with Clint! I think it's so cute.
Here they are making faces at each other
and then they were laughing so hard
I love, love, love this picture!!!
Here is one of the nurses, John, who came to hang Clints last bag of chemo!
and here he is getting unhooked from chemo :) Hopefully that was the last bag EVER!
Clint made me take this picture last night. He asked for some carrots with his dinner, and oh boy did they ever deliver...this plate was pretty big and they filled the whole thing up with carrots! I don't know of anyone that would want to eat that many carrots in one sitting, especially someone on chemo & radiation! It was pretty funny (at least it was for us)
Well tomorrow is our rest day and then the big transplant day on Thursday! They will refer to Thursday as day 0 and will count up from there. So they say it is pretty much like he has a new birthday (or another birthday because he said he's not giving up his original one :) I told the boys that we could get a cake and come sing to dad on Thursday, so they are pretty excited about that!
Please keep Clint's brother Darren in your prayers, he comes in to do the stem cell donation tomorrow. Hopefully it will go well and they will get all the cells they need, and he can have a quick, easy recovery!
Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, we feel so blessed everyday!

I'm sorry Clint wasn't feeling too hot today, but let me just say that I think he's looking AWESOME! That big ol' plate of carrots looks mighty tasty too, I hope they at least brought him a side of ranch because there's no way I could choke them done plain! Get lots of rest and good luck on Thursday! Let me know if you guys need anything!!
Keep us updated on how things go Thursday...love ya
