St. John's Group Email update on Jonas (Don Nolte's grandson

Yesterday, Jonas was readmitted to Children's Mercy Hospital for his regularly scheduled chemo treatment. His treatment schedule consists of being admitted into the hospital for one week and then be discharged out of the hospital the next-- for twelve weeks. The first part of the week home he will be feeling crumby. Then the later part of that week he should be feeling better. If during that week at home his body cannot handle the effects of the chemo, then he will be hospitalized for however long he needs it. (which is what happened last week when he go the blood tranfusion.)
The hospital is so full this week that yesterday we waited in a holding room for 9 hours just to get into a room. Even then, there is no room on 4Henson- the cancer floor, and several cancer patients are sharing a pod on 5Sutherland. Our room is so big this time. I wish we would have had it to hold all his visitors 3 weeks ago! Right now he is just sleeping alot and not in the mood for any company. I imagine in a day or two he will be itching for friends to stop by. I will keep you posted. Jeffery, I KNOW he is going to wantyou to stop by so he can see the new cool hairsyle I hear you've got going!
I put lots of new pictures on the photo gallery. Still more to come
