Mason and Jade arrived home last night for a couple of days. They are both relieved to be home and enjoying the sense of normalcy that it has brought. This last round of chemo was pretty tough on Mason, and he is still feeling pretty tired. He has also had a fairly persistent stomach ache that has been a bit bothersome. On the whole though, he is just happy to be home. Mason and Jade were glad that they were able to attend Kale's basketball game today after school. (Congratulations on your basket, Kale!) Mason was able to catch up with some friends and they had fun playing in the hall while the game was on - that's so nice to hear!
Justin will be taking Jade and Mason back to the hospital on Wednesday morning, so he'll be able to help them move all their luggage in and get settled. Mason will be receiving the same chemo again this time that he got this last round. They had to try some different combinations of anti-nauseant medications to help Mason last time, but they eventually found something that worked a bit better than the others. Let's hope that they can give it to him right off the bat this time, so that he doesn't have to suffer so badly with nausea. Of course, they are not looking forward to leaving home and going back to the hospital again, but they are trying to make the most of the time they have at home.
Our thoughts and prayers will certainly be with the Clewis family on Wednesday, as always, when they head back to Regina. Here's hoping that this round is a bit easier. God bless Mason!

Hi Mason
It's nice to hear that you have had some time at home. What a treat to be able to watch Kale get a basket in his big game. We are thinking of you lots and sending many good thoughts your way. Hope this round of treatment is a little less barfy than the last.
What's your favourite sub flavour? Are you a Subway guy or a Mr. Sub? William and Richard like Subway one likes Ham and the other Spicy Italian.
Everyone in your class at school sure misses you, hope you are staying strong. Keep your chin up, you are a star!!!
