October 16th

Seth did get his first platelet transfusion on Wednesday Oct. 14th. Everything went very well. Thankfully he did not have any negative reaction to the platelets. They told us that his white counts were lower then we thought they were. Basically Seth has no immune system right now which means he is pretty much house bound. If you know Seth you would know that being house bound is miserable for him. He hates the idea of not being able to go to school or even out in public. But even though it is hard for me to watch another time that my son have to give up some of his childhood I know that in the end it will be for the best. Seth is not aloud to go back to school until his counts come up and the next blood test will be done on Tuesday October 20th. Today Seth and I were working on his school work. When I was in school I hated Algebra and now I get to teach it to Seth (oh how fun!!!). I can tell Seth is getting frustrated with this whole ordeal. He does not say that exactly but just watching his reactions to things you can tell he is more emotional and has more tears then smiles. Seth had 9 sessions of chemo. The first 8 sessions he had no transfusions or delays then on the last session ,when we were so excited about being done with treatment, he had is first delay, first blood transfusion, and first platelet transfusion. We take one day at a time and praise God for the strength and peace He has given us (especially Seth).
