There hasn’t been a post lately as there hasn’t been anything to post. We have been working on helping Eli gain weight and BH that happened with eating and TPN. He looks and feels a lot stronger and noticeably gained weight BAH. We finished on Friday another round of chemo and it went pretty well with little side effects. 

The good news was that as a result of the stem cell transplant a few weeks prior Eli’s platelets climbed higher then they have been in a long time. The issue now is do we postpone chemo to try to let them climb higher even and then possibly let Eli be eligible for a study or will that gd forbid let the cancer come back if he’s off of treatment for any extended period of time. Either way for now‎ since what we are doing is having an effect we are going to stay with it for the time being but we are being proactive in planning for the future.

‎We are currently on the plane to NY to bring Eli to CAMP SIMCHA!!! We will IYH land late Monday evening and we will be taking Eli to MSKCC Tuesday morning to see the DR there and get a blood transfusion so that hopefully Eli can be in Camp without worrying about getting any transfusions. In addition we have been weaning Eli off of TPN so that he can enjoy every minute of the camp experience without dealing with any medical issues beezrat hashem. We have been in full contact with the amazing staff there and know and trust that it will be an amazing experience. It’s a 2 week camp full of non stop fun and we hope that Eli loves and enjoyes every second of it. Camp begins WED and we look forward to bringing Eli there. 

Please as always have Elimelech Ben Basya and all cholim in your tefilos. ‎
