Hi There -
Well, we had a little crazy weekend. I'm going to be quick, so I'll start off by saying we went out and had some good fun that Hans was up for on Saturday - hit the Aquarium in Camden NJ - Hans had fun hopping 2 subways to get there and he loved the hippos A LOT!!!
Then sunday - we quickly tanked. Basically, we found out that Hans is experiencing some nerve pain/neuropathy from the Vincristine. It's a little hard to manage his pain, so we took him into the ER yesterday and he wound up getting admitted with a high heart rate. We are about to start him on more morphine and then get him on a good oral pain med that he will take even at home for a while.
He's going to get his stem cells this afternoon, likely stay one more night inpatient, and Kevin is actually on his way back out here to be with us. The plan still is for us to go back home on Weds...
My mom flew out this morning to take over Elle Care. My mom and Kev will basically cross paths at the airport, so she was just able to pick up the car - so that part worked out well!
Thanks for your prayers for our little sweetie. He is doing okay - his symptoms were just sort of puzzling. I felt better after meeting with our team this morning!

It sure makes me mad what our precious darlings endure. I'm glad Kev could trade places with your mom.
Looking forward to having you back in the neighborhood.

Hi!
So sorry Hans is a bit low.
Glad all arrangements are working out!
Love and hugs,

please tell Hans that he is my hero for being so good and strong. All of you guys are inspiring, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
Sounds like you have a good team on your side and I'm glad Kevin can make it back out for the flight home. And, I'm glad Elle will get special Grandma time, too.
Love, prayers and hugs to all!
