Day 20: T+20

Wahoooooo!!!!!!

I may or may not have thrown a party at my house this morning when I got a text from Vicki that said: 

".....Platelets at 49 and we have neutros 100!!"

No. Way. Really?!?

His neutrophils have been hanging out at zero for SoOo long. So long. And that's what they are supposed to do. That's how the BMT goes. And you're just waiting for the zero to turn to something other than a stinkn Zero. 

We are on the path to engraftment. The doctor said it may or may not be a sign of engraftment, but it could be. 

Other good news is that his co2 levels are down from yesterday (56 to 33). Co2 levels should be anywhere from 19-30. He's getting close to being in the normal range. He looked better when I came today than he did yesterday. By his report, he feels the same as yesterday. 

We got Eric some easier foot attire for the hospital. Check out these beautiful guys:


Yeah for good news!
