Day +23

Bingo day = prize cart!


Cruising the halls


First trip into the play room


All I really can say is...WOW! Joshua's numbers shot up overnight. Yesterday his ANC was 363 and this morning it is 1,920! His platelets, white and red blood cells are also coming along nicely. The doctors think we will go home this Friday or Saturday since Joshua is well above the required ANC level (500) to be discharged. He is experiencing some (suspected) GVHD, though. He has been throwing up everything all day, starting a little after midnight. Other than the throwing up, he has acted totally normal.

Today's lab values
WBC: 3.0 / ANC: 1920 / HGB: 10.4 / HCT: 29.5 / PLT: 69
