Catch !!!

WEEEEEE !!!

I do have to APOLOGIES for not posting sooner. We both work full time and I try to HELP with our farm.(SORRY,HONEY) I need at least three more hours in the day and hope that will be enough!!! Hunter had his lumbar puncher this trip. We have Hunter accessed here in town. "THANK YOU HEATHER!!!!" For making Hunter smile,WE LUV YA!!!! When we got up to clinic chemo was not ready it should have been in by 9:00am but wasn't. Hunter appointment 8:00am at clinic and at 9:30am at RTU so down stairs we went. As we got Hunter registered for RTU the lady asked Hunter if he would like a teddy bear that someone had donated. Hunter Said yes !!! He named his bear Growly Guss bear,he loves him. He took his bear to RTU with him and told them all his name and showed them how he Growls. While we were waiting for Dr.Spraker to do his lumbar puncher Hunter was playing with them at RTU with an imaginary ball. THANK YOU ALL at the RTU for making Hunter smile !!!! On our trips I try to do something fun so he will remember all the fun he has had instead of the chemo and all that comes with it. Now back up stairs for more chemo. I always order Hunter a cupcake after RTU. As we got up stairs I try not to let Hunter venture out much. Our second week after Hunter was diagnosed he picked up a bug that is only in Hospital's in infusions so I am PETRIFIED to take him in back. But we survived !!!! Our favorite visitor came in to see us Oliver!!! (THANK YOU SHERRY!!!!) Now outside to see Daddy and Triston to make our wishes. Mom is still wishing for a cure !! We save the best part for last...... on our way home we picked up a new puppy. Her name is Snickers,and the boy's are so EXCITED !!!! Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers!!! Love, The Laub's

Hunter wishing mom hoping !!!

Triston wishing mom still hoping!!!

PEEK A BOO !!!!!

Dad would say "spur em get him going !!!!"

We are back from another treatment. This treatment was VERY  EMOTIONAL for me. Hunter is allergic to the tegaderm film they put over his port after he is access. He's constantly rubbing his port,even in his sleep. On this trip up to Primaries he was just to get Vincristine through his port. But this time was a lot different when they tried to flush his port to give him his chemo he started to cry. When they went to draw back no blood went into the syringe just bubbles. Hunter was crying so hard the sailing was just going into his tissue and the nurse told me it really hurts. This means Hunter will have to be DE-access and Re-access. Hunter itches his chest so much that he DE-access him self. The nurse had to take the tegaderm film off to DE-access him and his hole body was shaking because there was an extra tegaderm film on him covering more then his port. So it took longer to get this off. In St. George where he is access they put a extra tegaderm film on him because they didn't think it would stay on the way it was placed. Hunter hates to be accessed !!! But he knows it has to be done. He will hold my fingers and SQUEEZE TIGHT as I whisper to him in his ear telling him that his mommy is right hear by him. He had a visitor during all of this it was Oliver !!! THANK YOU  so very much Sherry for bring Oliver in to see Hunter. It truly help Hunter him !!! So while we were waiting for the lidocaine to numb his chest Hunter was playing with Oliver. Access and time for chemo. A short trip turn into a three and a half hour trip. But good news Hunter counts are up this means because he is doing well they are going to increase his chemo. (Mom is worried) So our brave little fighter made it through another treatment. After treatment we went out to the car to get daddy and Triston and took our boys to the fountain to make a wish. After we decided to take the boys to the living aquarium this time instead of  ice cream. THEY LOVED IT !!!! Hunter played peek a boo with the sting rays. But nether of the boys would not touch them they just played in the water.We want to thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers !!! Love,the Laubs
