I know its been a long time

We apologize for the lack of updates on the blog over the last few weeks. Honestly until now there hasn't been a lot to post. The holiday's were busy for everyone and Daxter was doing very well.

Daxter was admitted for a short stay on Christmas day because of another staph infection. This has seemed to become common during chemo. He was dismissed on new years eve doing well.

He started his fourth round of chemo last week and unfortnatly he isn't doing very well with it. He has been having nonstop diaherra and vommitting and was very dehydrated. He also passed a gallstone. He has been extremely fussy and irritable. Bailey and Grandma haven't gotten much sleep this hospital stay. He hasn't able to eat anything at all for several days now. They are going to try to feed him an ounce every three hours today to see if he can keep it down. If he can't they will have to try other methods to keep him nourshied like a feeding tube.

Please keep Daxter in your prayers, this round of chemo is hitting him especially hard for some reason. Please also pray for Ben, Bailey, Debbie and the family because they are getting little rest and are hurting watching their baby boy in pain.

I will keep you updated as much as I can.
