October 1


Seth was admitted today to the Hospital for his last round of chemo. YEAH!!! It was amazing to see how much his blood counts come up with the transfusion. His red blood counts are almost in normal range and his white blood counts have come up a lot since Monday. His platelets are coming up but not near normal. They usually want to see his platelet counts at 75K before they do chemo his are 60K. The doctors left the decision up to us, do we want Seth admitted and to get the chemo over with or go home and come back next week and try again. If we chose to be admitted today that makes his chances of needing a platelet transfusion after this round of chemo higher. I asked Seth and he said lets do the chemo and be done with it! So here we are... Seth is doing very well and is currently doing some of his school work. Keep praying that all goes well. Chemo should start around 5:30pm and then again tomorrow at 5:30pm.

Yea!
We are praying for you Seth. Your skin tone looked great last evening so once your counts stay up on there own, you should be looking like your old self.
We are going to W.Va. for the weekend, but hope to see you Monday.
Enjoy your last stay in the hospital.
