Logan's blood count from yesterday looks great. He has very few immature neutrophils which is what you should see in a cancer free person. Eric and I are very encouraged that all his cancer is gone.
We also talked with his doctor about the white blood cell stimulator and Logan will be getting one shot of a version that lasts for 14 days in his system (so no daily shots! YEA!) The nurse will administer that shot on December 11 (it has to be 24 hours after chemo ends). We have a CHANCE of Logan not needing to be hospitalized for low white blood cells this time with this new drug. However, while his body is busy making those white blood cells, it's not making the other things so it may mean more transfusions for him. It's a trade off we're willing to make.

Logan is a lucky little man, you both have been making excellent decisions all through this treatment. The light is at the end of the tunnel. Love to all Mom.
