Oh where, oh where, have my little neutrophils gone...
Well, yesterday's labs had Nate with a white blood cell count of about
2000, but an ANC of 44. Today his WBC was up some more, but his ANC
is like 36. BTW, the difference between 44 and 36 is negligible. So,
he's still inpatient. Vicki came back down (she rocks!) again last
night, watched the kids today while I went to work. Christa is stuck
at LPCH. I went to the hospital after work, Christa came home for a
few hours, then headed back up there. Now, I'm home, and will go to
work tomorrow.
Christa's Dad comes into town tomorrow from Illinois. We were
supposed to go to Tahoe this coming weekend, but at this point I'll be
happy to just have Nate home. Debrah and Catherine stopped by today,
since Catherine had her pentamidine appointment today. The went to
Camp Okizu last weekend, and brought some goodies for Nate.
Apparently Okizu got a bunch of swag from Lucas, star wars gear. That
was really nice.
So, life is hectic, as usual. We're on our, what, 6th straight night
of this hospital stay. Our record is 8 days, set in March. We surely
don't want to break that record!
Good night!
- Greg
