Thank you all for your support  :hugfriend
Andy, we got through the day - he perked up quite a lot in the afternoon - and he tried every thing in his power to negotiate "speeding up the treatment" with the nurses - but thank god they did not listen to him.  He almost convinced the doctor to let the nurses speed it up - so that he could make it to his game - but finally the doctor said - even though most likely nothing would happen, he did not want to take any risks. 

There were a lot of tears and crying about having to spend 3 days of his spring break in the hospital and missing such an important game - he never used to complain - but I can see that we are in too often recently.but we have been entertaining him all evening so that he feel better - so far he seems better. 

I am so glad that we got through the day without any reactions - I hope and pray that the ritux settles the auto - antibodies this time.  It took 6 weeks for the antibodies to disappear last time so we will know in May how well the treatment has worked.  If it didn't work well then we can try giving him two doses of ritux at the time.  I pray that it won't be necessary. 

Thanks again for your prayers,

Sharmin

Sharmin, i am happy that everything went well today, i know how hard it was for all of you.

Little A, though you missed the game but you are still our champion and there are still more to come. Your health is so precious to your parent and to us so please don't be sad because what you went through today to beat the antibodies is so important for you in your challenge. i amsure you are going to win your ''game'' with the antibodies as you always do with your hockey

Please take care

Sometimes , He sends us pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes , He sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes , He sends us illness so we can take better care of our selves.
Sometimes , He takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything we have.

 :congrats   to Little A!

There may be a silver lining to missing yesterday's game because little A may be a bit more fresh than the other players who have played 3 days in a row.

 :goodluck tomorrow!
Andy

All we are saying is give thals a chance.
