Pop Pop refers to Percocet as a "Miracle Drug" as it normally does the job for pain, but the Neupogen is really doing a number on him and the Percocet only serves to take the edge off now.  His body aches are really getting painful and when I asked him where he feels it (if it is in his bones or muscles) he just says everywhere.  He is being very cautious with himself and wearing a mask when anyone is around because his white blood cells are at 0.

Pop Pop enjoyed watching the kids (Bella, Caroline and Alexander) play outside through the window today.  I took them over so that he could enjoy them for a bit while I gave him 3 injections in his belly.  When I saw the huge bruise left behind from a previous injection (not administered by me), I was worried that I might hurt him.  As always he was a trooper!  I also took him for another joy ride (we both wore masks) which I enjoyed as much as  he did.
