I'm really hoping they can give us a different antibiotic in this case. It may just be too much on him. We half the pill and give 1 half in the morning and the other in the evening, I've made sure he's eaten before taking it too. It really just didn't agree with him. He's eaten 2 bowls of the chicken tortilla soup I made tonight! So that's a great sign. He hasn't complained today about his belly hurting, the only thing different today, is no antibiotics.. the dr did prescribe him Zofran for nausea. I gave him one yesterday when he first started complaining but it didn't do much for him last night. |

       Location: Texas | When you spoke about breaking down, it made me remember about ten years ago when my youngest son (he was a young adult but still lived at home) was diagnosed with cancer. I had about an hour drive to work and would cry all the way to work and all the way home. It was my only outlet and it helped to let it out. If you need to cry, just cry. Prays for you and your son. |

| Well, I think I'm going to give my dr a call and go see her for some help. My anxiety is really starting to push it's way to the surface and it's greatly affecting my sleep and just my overall well being, if there's such a thing for me right now! I took my daughter to her dr this morning which is in the same speciality clinic I take jacob to for his treatments. She broke her foot a while back so we've been doing follow up appointments every 3-4 weeks. I felt a small anxiety attack coming on in the elevator and it really scared me. I know I haven't been sleeping well, even when jacob is sound asleep and feeling decent. I really don't want to have to take "something" to keep me "ok" but I know Jacob needs me to be ok and if that's what it takes, I'll do it. Sorry, I'm just writing out what I feel, sometimes it helps me to put things into perspective, I know I need to take care of me too so I can take care of Jacob and everyone else. |

Thatβs why they make those medicines!! Youβre handling this so much better than you could be! Youβre amazing! Just keep going forward. |

| Just checking on you. Hey it's okay to cry, scream, get mad then use that madness to fight. Don't hold it all in. Trust me it's not good did that myself, it's really not good. Try to take a little bit of time for yourself everyday even it's only 5 minutes. And something that worked for me was journaling gets everything out. note to self need to burn the spirals :). Get all that negativity out then let the positive in. Still praying for you guys. And your son is a cutie. hugs. |
