Our Brave Boy

Today was the dreaded PEG shots in Alex's thighs. He was in remarkably good spirits as we rode the Tram up to the clinic. He made his funny Platypus noise (from a Disney TV show - Finnias and Ferb) for all the nurses, and was *so* brave when they did the shots - two long needles in his thighs - both at the same time.

After it was over, I told him that it was OK to cry - and he turned to me, and gave me a great big hug. No crying for him - he was so stoic - the nurses are constantly amazed at how well he has adjusted to all the pokes assaulting his body.

He's quite the trooper - we love him so much!
