Day One Hundred Thirteen

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."  Mathew 7:7-8

It was a vomitless (is that a word?) day for Ryan.  Yeah!  We talked to the doctor about him getting sick about 20 seconds after the saline push, and she said that the nurse is pushing it too fast (hmmm, did someone say that the other day??).  The last two treatments, Ryan's color would change immediately, and then he would get sick.  Today, a different nurse did it slow, and he didn't have a problem.  That's a great thing!   

After the treatment, Ryan played a little bit in the play area, and we saw Samia!  It's been several weeks, so it was good to see her again.  Ryan missed John, so hopefully they will be able to hang out next week.  We still don't know when the treatment will be because they said that they were booked on Friday. We will find out next week.

When I got home from work, Ryan was in a good mood.  Actually, he was in a good mood all day.  Even at the doctor's office (minus the 3 minutes that his port was accessed).  Davianna had fun at her field day, and she kept talking about tug-a-war.  She thought that was really cool.

After we ate, Will and MArielk came over.  The kids love it when they come over!  Mirjan and MArielk were talking about baby showers for about 2 hours.  MArielk also mentioned something about a "push present."  It's a gift that the husband is supposed to buy his wife for pushing the baby out.  I told Will he should buy her a lawnmower.  Will thought that was a great idea!   Mirjan made a cake for MArielk's birthday...here is the birthday girl:

It was a good day, and Victor Alejandro is awesome!!  :)

Father, thank you for blessing Ryan with a good day, and a safe, sick-free treatment! I thank you for being with us each and every day and taking our anxieties away as we are walking this journey.  Thank you for doing great things for Alicia, and please continue to be with that little girl and her family.  Thank you for Will and MArielk and please be with them and bless their family.  Father, I thank you for today and your wonderful blessings.  I ask that you continue to heal my little boy.  In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
