This photo is from the same set, but also includes Xander's sisters. Nichole age 14 is on
the left and Charissa almost 13 is on the right. Xander was embarased by his head size and really did not want to
have the photos taken without his sisters there to support him.
This next photo was taken three weeks after the last set. Xander has just come out of a 5
day hospital stay that included 2 red blood cell transfustions. His counts were still terrible, and he had another transfusion
less then a week later. If you look closely his moon face has gone down slightly, but he has been off the prednisone for about
3 weeks. Much of his hair is gone at this point. Xander did not go bald on his chemo so far, just patchy.
These photos were taken Dec. 5, nearly 2 months after the prednisone was stopped. His face has still not resumed its normal size. You can also see
his hair loss better in his photo. At this point he has had 6 blood transfusions and
had to be assisted in the half block walk into the photo studio.
