Good Times!

Trent was feeling pretty good yesterday so I asked him out on a date.  We went to see the afternoon showing of Sherlock Holmes.  I am certain we were BY FAR the youngest people in the theater.  We kind of laughed about being at the "early bird" show.  As soon as we got there Trent had some stabbing pain which we quickly medicated.  We were able to enjoy the entire show without incident and had a great time.  We made it home just in time to see Megan traipse over to Young Women's in my sister's wedding dress.  They were having a modest fashion show and that is what Megan chose to wear.  I did her hair in an "up do" and put flowers in it.

Yes, it was kind of weird to see Megan in a wedding dress and it freaked Trent out just a little.

Just before bed last night Trent had some really wicked pain.  It was easily a ten on the pain scale and he was difficult to calm down.  We put warm bean bags on his back and rubbed some oil on him to get him to relax.  It worked pretty quickly but he didn't sleep much last night.  He says he asked me for pain medicine and I only half-way remember that.  I think I rolled over and went back to sleep.  Oops.

Trent has another lump on his arm again.  He got two of them last round and the docs thought they were either bug bites or sarcoma.  Both of them went away rather quickly.  Now, at the same point in the cycle as last time, another one has popped up.  It looks to be in the same spot as one of them from before.  It is pretty tender too.  We marked it with a pen and will watch it closely for any changes.

We outlined the bump but you can hardly see it.

These are the bumps from last round that went away.

All things considered, Trent is doing pretty well.  MOST of the day he is in good spirits and feels okay.  If we could just get better at anticipating the rough spots, he would be doing better.  However, I had a date with my hubby and that hasn't happened in a very long time.  Good times, good times!
