Day 13

Monday March 23, 2009

What a wonderful day! Jake and I remember this day, the 23 as something special! :) Today my soccer practice was delayed so I was able to visit Jacob right after school. Today his white cell count is all the way at 1.6! That is incredible. His red blood cells only went back up to 3.2. Since he is having trouble breathing they are giving him two units of blood hoping that it will relieve the pain. His neutrophls were at 272 today which is amazing again! His counts are going up fast which are great, yet they started him on steroids today since they are going so fast. The believe that's why the rash may be happening the way it is. Also, his platelets were at 24 today so he didn't need any platelets. He is once again doing great. Many of you may know that I have a lot of clothes. I sufficiently cleaned my closet, and seriously only have half of my clothes left. My mom and brother were also able to clean part of the basement this weekend to help for Jacob's return. Tonight Alissa, his sister, will be spending the night with him. I can't wait until the day he comes home safe and sound. Along with many others!
