So far so good with this latest round of chemo. Logan's blood counts are doing great with White Blood Cells = 2.5, hemoglobin = 8.1, Platelets = 227,000, Neutrophils = 1600
He's feeling great, no fever or bleeding problems, and he's still eating like a horse. My only complaint is that he keeps pulling out his eye lashes and they aren’t growing back!!!!
He's back at school this week (after being in the doctor's office all last week instead) and loving it. He comes home every afternoon and teaches us what he's learned in school. I now know all about the flaming ball of gas we call the sun! : ) He's make lots of new friends too but has decided that riding the bus is not for him. He say's it too loud but I suspect there are some older kids giving him a hard time about his lack of hair. So I'm now taking him to school and picking him up. School is a requirement but bus rides are optional and he likes having the choice.
We’ll have another blood test to post on Friday. No news until then is good news! : )
p.s. - We still haven't heard back about the tissue typing. It's probably my sample that's giving them problems... I've always been a trouble maker!

I think that if all you have to complain about this week is eyelashes, then it is going to be an awesome week.
ReplyDeleteAdditionally, growing up we blamed everything on you anyway, so ... for nostalgia... No tissue sample yet?...Diane Did It!
I hope you are enjoying your first full day of both kids in school all day. Remember you are suppose to do something nice for yourself today.

Is Logan bothered by the Fall allergies? If his eyes are itchy, that may be one reason for pulling the eyelashes out...I know how that feels...just a thought. There are some good OTC drops that stop the itching. I'm glad his blood counts haven't gotten too bad. Have a good week.

I think he does have some allergies. I'll talk to his doctor about the drops. Thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteKennedy has plenty of eyelashes to spare, perhaps she could donate. Stay true to your character, troublemaker!
