August 3rd, 2012 - Chemotherapy Treatment # 60

Another week done for Peyton and it was easy! We are still excited that Peyton is doing so well since getting him off of one type of chemo. He continues to feel great and is looking forward to beginning kindergarten this year. How is it even possible that my sweet boy is starting school? I'm thrilled that he's ready but I know he's growing up and I'm just not sure I'm as ready for it all! lol On a different note....we have started talking to Peyton's doctors about our concerns with his speech. There are times when it is very difficult to understand what he's saying. His speech is often slurred and just unclear. We aren't sure what we should do. It's been a problem for ahwile but we are now noticing that it's becoming more prominent. Should we try and get him in to see a speech therapist? Is this something a speech therapist can assist us with? Later this month Peyton will see an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor to help us with these questions. Summer is wrapping up and we are going to try and just enjoy the last few days of break!
