A Small Hiccup

Hello everyone. Just a quick update on our crazy week.  Brian has been feeling pretty run down since the last round of chemo. He has a slight cold and just didn't feel like he was rebounding the same as past rounds.  Yesterday he had some blood work and his white blood cell counts were low.  Then last night he had a fever. The rule is 100.5 or higher and we have to go to the ER.  So we went last night. They ran every test imaginable. They haven't found any infection which is good!  Brian is getting antibiotics and fluids to be proactive since he has such a low immunity right now.  He has to wait until his nuetrophil white blood counts reach 500 in order to be discharged. This whole process is so that we are better safe than sorry. It could take several days to get those counts back up. Pray that it is quick so that our little family can all be sleeping under the same roof!

Love to you all!

P.S. Is it a good sign when people say, "I remember you," when they see Brian?!?!

  1. How could they not remember you guys?! It's that or they are just lying and want to be cool like the rest of us who know you. Hugs, love, and prayers.

  2. Staff end up becoming like family. You really get to know them and it always feels so nice when they remember you. :)
