Justin is starting to feel very tired. He has had a lot of pain in his shoulder and it has now moved to his hip. We have not noticed any new petechiae.

We do have hope that it could be something other than cancer. These are the top choices.

• Autoimmune disorders, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis
• Viral infections, such as mononucleosis and measles (rubella)
• Bone marrow disorders, such as leukemia

There is a family history of lupus (I have had lupus since age 17) and rheumatoid arthritis (his grandfather on his dad's side has this) so both of those are very possible. I personally I hoping for the mono because it is not life long.

We are supposed to go to a Christmas party today. We have all been looking forward to it. It is about 2 hours away, but they have a Joe's Crab Shack there and everyone should know how much we love to go to Joe's. We try to go anytime we are in the area. I am not sure if Justin is up to making the trip though. We are supposed to be leaving with in the next hour or two so we will see.

I will be sure to update again once  I know something but I wanted to let everyone one that I have found other possible causes.
