Another trip to the hospital this week

We just noticed that Chase is having a hard time walking. He is limping & does not want to walk at all. He would cry if you ask him to & would extend his arm for us to carry him instead. I called the hem/onc fellow on call and they want us to come in.

We went to the ER & had him checked. The ER took his vital signs & blood. The hematologist told us that there can be 2 reasons for this.
1. Sign of infection
2. Side effect of the Chemotheraphy - Vincristine or Decadron.

The hematologist checked his leg & hips for swelling & redness, the signs of probable infection. Everything was ok so they sent us home. We were at the ER for 4 hours today. Chase was crying hard just being in the hospital. We would tell the nurses Bye-bye.
