Fun with cousins! We made the 6 hour drive north and met up with Jeff's brother Gary to explore Mount Rushmore together. Right now these are the "even cousins". Their ages are 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10! Jonathan did great on the trip. We enjoyed exploring Mount Rushmore and made it to the "Black Hills Caverns" the next day. When we got home, Jonathan excitedly ran to find his "Legoland count down chain". Make a Wish mailed us the supplies to make an advent type count down chain for him. We leave this Thursday! We couldn't be more excited about the trip. We started promising Jonathan Legoland about half-way through his chemo cycles. We'd pull up the webpage at the hospital and he'd want to look at pictures of every ride and ask if he was tall enough to ride them. We are so very thankful that he's finally "all better" and can go.
I would ask for prayers for protection against illness for him. At his checkup a couple weeks ago, his white count had dropped significantly and was at about half the normal level. The doctors chalked it up to just a normal fluctuation as his body continues to heal and recover but that means he's more susceptible to illness right now.
