PORT SURGERY DAY!

Today marks the one year anniversary of Jeff’s hemorrhagic stroke. 30 days in Neuro icu and he has come such a

long way!

Today, Noah is in the same exact hospital getting his port surgery!!

I pray things go they way they should and I pray my baby is not in any pain when he gets out. Chemo and spinal tap (LP) today on top of it….!

Symptoms

ALL symptoms start when leukemia cells crowd out normal blood cells in bone marrow. The types of symptoms your child has will depend on the numbers of cancer cells and healthy blood cells.

Children with B-cell ALL may:

Bleed or bruise more easily than usual
Feel very tired
Get infections more often
Lose their appetite

Other symptoms include:

Bone or joint pain
Limping
Fever
Pale skin
Red or purple spots called petechiae on the skin
Swollen lymph nodes in the neck, underarms, or groin

If the cancer cells travel to your child’s liver and spleen, these organs can grow large enough to make the belly swell. In some boys, the testicles can also grow larger.
