The Brave Boy and Therapeutic Clowns at CHEO (plus Mario photobombing)

Home is our refuge...

This is a fave t-shirt of his that Mrs. Hatoum gave him when Abby and friends worked the Lemonade Stand for Cancer last spring. Ironic that the very organizations we were all raising money for mere months ago are now supporting my family. 

We have enjoyed three beautiful days at home without having to go to CHEO and we all feel more ourselves now. Ollie is feeling great physically and mentally, but is starting to realize that this journey will be somewhat isolating for him because his world will mainly be the house and the hospital. This is to limit his exposure to potential viruses.  He is quickly coming to love taking car rides just to get out and also online shopping with mom. 

Here he got his ball stuck and is sporting one of the PICC line covers that a dear friend made for him with another friend.

He is loving the indoor basketball set that he got as an early Christmas gift and engaging us all in games, often. 

Ollie has received so many new Lego sets and built so many recently that he has now conned Daddy into being the master builder so he can simply play with them after. 

We even found time to bake (not for ourselves as we already have so many yummy things from kind people who have brought goodies by) for the St. G youth group tomorrow night and Ollie was thrilled to help.

A normal, boring evening at home is so underrated and we are so enjoying them, but back to CHEO tomorrow for a PICC dressing change and a lesson.
