Great news! TeeLee is sitting with Daddy today while he is "dripping," and I am happy to report that his white blood count is up from yesterday, in a big way! His count was 0.4 yesterday and is 2.0 today! He said it must be from his Flintstones vitamins! If he reaches the magic number of 4.0, he will get to go home for a few days. He is tentatively scheduled to have his bone marrow transplant beginning on May 14th, but that depends on how his blood counts behave! :-)
I'm going over in the morning to hang out with him while Christy goes to the store. I told him I want BIG numbers or I will beat him with a wet noodle! By the way, "dripping" is the name that Daddy has given to his daily clinic visits. He is hooked up to an IV and just sits there for hours at a time while they give him his medication/platelets/blood for the day. There has to be a nickname for everything!
Keep praying for that 4.0!!!!
