Not So Good News

Today has been a pretty rough day. Matthew's pain has been getting worse and worse, so by around 6:00 he couldn't even walk. My dad had to kind of carry/drag him around the house for him to use the bathroom. He took a bunch of pain meds this morning, so he pretty much slept through the day. My parents were on the phone with the hospital for a while tonight, and by 8ish they decided to take him back to Phoenix Children's. Matthew's pain was at a 7-8 tonight and he was in tears because he hurt so bad. My dad was able to give T a blessing before they left. My aunt came over with her whole family and we said a family prayer together too. It sucks watching him suffer like this, but hopefully the chemo treatments he will receive tomorrow will work quickly. We're not sure if he'll get chemo in the hospital or in the clinic yet, but we should know by tomorrow. I'll keep everyone posted and will have an update tomorrow.
