Neutropenic fever

Cultures are all negative, so we continue on standard protocol. He is still feverish today, so we are still waiting for the clock to start for our departure from the hospital. We are anxiously awaiting the point that his WBC starts to climb again. History has shown us that his fever breaks once he has a measurable neutrophil count. We remain at a "perfect" 0.0 today.

Thanks to all the family that has offered help. We took advantage of some of the offers this time, and Amanda is now in good hands in Kansas City. Amanda is going to do the rounds with the cousins while we are in the hospital, which is absolutely wonderful. Thank you all!!!
