Cancer treatments for children have come a long way, so hopefully he will have a full recovery. And no surprise you had to make him a quilt. I keep asking myself, how the heck do you keep a dog quiet, especially for so long a time. But the good news is that 2nd vaccine. That must have lifted your spirits.<br />Pat<br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-32709504192496890192021-06-07T21:02:04.420-04:002021-06-07T21:02:04.420-04:00I know you feel relief with having had that second...I know you feel relief with having had that second shot.

I remember a boy at my primary school had leukemia; back when they couldn't cure it - so sad as he was a twin. Hope that Bella and Xena soon make friends. I remember at one stage when I was living at home we had three dogs and five cats; they all used to go for a walk in the evening with my mum is was quite a sight!Michelle in Scotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196205874203372636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-20271955786325879532021-06-07T13:17:09.248-04:002021-06-07T13:17:09.248-04:00Having something warm and comfy is almost a must f...Having something warm and comfy is almost a must for chemo patients.
