One day when me and Alec picked up Cassidy from school, as we walked to our car we saw a Mom and her son whom we had met at the Jimmy Fund. (I don't want to use names for their privacy). I heard his Mom check in and say she was from Billerica and I told her I was from Billerica. So we would see each other on occasion and chit chat. She was always loving up Alec when she saw him, it was so sweet and Alec loved it and he loved seeing her and her son. So this time we walked over to their car, it was her and her son, and we were talking. She had told me that they had gone to Mexico for vacation and that her son had gotten a fever while they were there and had to get immediate care (because when you have a port for chemo, and you get a fever, you need to get to a hospital right away for antibiotics in case of infection.) So she told us that it was awful and they didn't do things like here and that they gave her son a shot his bum. Her son was mortified that she told us. Alec took in everything she said and was upset for her son that he got a shot in his bum. Though he thought it was funny that she told us about his bum.
Later Alec said to us,
"Mexico is so stupid, they give you a shot in your bum".
He would randomly say at times, "Mexico is so stupid!"
And the other day, the women that has been working with us to plan a vacation suggested to us to go to Mexico.
I said No we can't go to Mexico, and she said may I ask why you don't want to go Mexico?
And I said because my son said Mexico is so stupid.
