Noah’s had an okay day! – The Amazing Noah

Noah’s had an okay day! He laid around all day. Only time he was mobile was to use the bathroom. He spent some time on his bean bag in his room and then the rest of the time on the recliner. His hips hurt, he just feels blah and he has a low grade temp of 99.2. His temp always elevates 24 hours after his LP with IT. He only ate a couple bites of food throughout the day nothing much but he has been drinking to stay hydrated.

Overall he is in great spirits as he always is…! He understands the routine of starting his new cycles and what to expect! He is amazing!

He relaxed in the bath for a bit and is now in bed watching a couple of his shows before he goes to sleep!

Everyone have a great night!

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.
