Last night was not a good night at our house. Jonathan woke up, crying, that his legs/feet were “moving” and “on fire”. Figured out that his legs were cramping. 
Poor guy. Finally got him to settle down and he fell back to sleep about 0500 this morning. Needless to say we’re all tired today.
Last night I was giving him a bath and I noticed 2, pea-sized, hard nodes on the side of his neck. He’s had another lymph node that was sort of swollen, on the other side, that we’ve kept an eye on. Sometimes he says they hurt, sometimes he says they don’t. Anyway, I freaked out and was thinking way out in left field…cancer? Researching it on-line didn’t help AT ALL!!!! I’m worried because I have an uncle that has Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I talked to the NP that works in the clinic next to our clinic, and she agreed to see him after work today. She said that it’s rare that kids get lymphoma. She asked if he’s been sick, and I said not since October. It is possible that it could be residual from his cold then. But he’s not complaining of anything really hurting, his energy and appetite have been fine. I’m really trying to think positive and think it’s just an infection or a cyst. He’s also skinny. I read that swollen nodes are more prominent on skinny kids well since they are so skinny.
Last night we also found out that Mike’s great-grandpa is in the hospital and not doing well. The last update I had been that he’s still alive, but that the cancer has spread throughout his body and was coughing up blood. We all thought he’d out live all of us. Please keep our family in your thoughts or prayers.
We still have no idea what is up with Mike’s job. His last official day is this Friday. I’m freaking out.
