First infusion was done yesterday he did great. They had to give him a IV to give him the medicine and they drew blood from his chemo port. We were so proud of him. He did amazing with having to get the iv in his hand. He was scared but still let them do it and says next time wont be so bad. They have a buzzing ladybug that they put on his arm between where they put the needle in and his head. Whoever came up with this is a genius. Because its a research medicine they have to take a lot of blood before and four hours after the infusion and the following day. Vitals are taken every half hour from start till we leave. They also do an ekg 2 hours after infusion completes. It was a total of nine hours. He so brave and strong. He knows he is a real life superhero.
