The Prologue

Since Rohan cannot explain what is happening to him, I have decided to start this blog as way to translate to all of you how he is feeling and doing throughout his treatment for leukemia. I also want it to be a kind of record for Rohan when he is older and able to read. With that said, there may at times be postings that might not make sense to you but will make sense to him later.I hope this blog helps all of you who care about Rohan and us better understand the journey. I already know it will help me to have more clarity while I make this journey with him.

So Far, So Good

Well we are a week into this new phase and all seems okay so far. He is on 1.5x the dosage of steroids he was on in August, yet there have not been significant alterations to his behavior. His food intake has increased but still, not the way it was in the beginning. Rohan is back to eating lots of spicy food. That means nachos with hot salsa, spicy Indian snacks, etc.

As for the decision with which we were struggling last week, we told the doctor, and his advice was sage. He told us that once we make the decision to "not look in the rear view mirror or we will crash". So we hope and pray for the best.

We are off to the hospital tomorrow for what I am sure will be a loong day. It's a short entry this week, but sometimes not having anything to report is the best report of all!
