Taking brother toTreatment #5

 Mr. Blue Eyes brought his youngest brother to chemo/clinic today. I researched it a bit and found that it is helpful for siblings to see what they do. 
Can I just say two boys are nothing but trouble! 
What was I thinking? It was nothing but burps and loud laughter. They must get the burping from their dad and the laughter, well, that just might come from me. When we got into see the doctor, Mr. Blue Eyes announced that they had been burping during the blood draw. Doc was speaking with a Spanish accent today and informed Mr. Blue Eyes, while looking in his ears (that's his favorite part because he says it feels good), that he could see clear through.  In fact clear to Idaho! LOL! Mr. Blue Eyes also informed the doctor that he knows his cell phone access code. The Doc handed him the phone and sure enough he got the code correct. WE just can't get anything past this cute bald boy. Then the doctor asked his brother if he had any questions. He shook is head no. Without a pause, the Doc started talking rapidly, rambling off things about chemo and mitosis, etc. Little brother was rolling and turned so red laughing his bloody head off!!  We were all laughing, and Mr. Blue Eyes piped in," he cannot understand a word you are saying." In the end, brother stated that Mr. Blue Eyes' doctor is
 Hilarious!!!!! What a gift to bring children joy!
 

Thanks for all the well wishes for the WISHING TREES! We hung them all today. Very Sweet! If you see a little tissue hanging out of his nose, Mr. Blue Eyes had a bloody nose and decided he was rocking the wad in his nose, so I just let him.

Good thing it was a chemo day. We were gone a good part of the day and even fit in a little play date later. The electricity went out just after 8:30 a.m. and came on at 10:00 p.m. We had no notification, so it was a night of candles and quiet. Well at least the house humming was silent, the children inside were not, but what would life be without that kind of insane, good, crazy noise!
