Theo update

Theo's white count jumped up to 3.78 today!!!! Woo hoo! That's double yesterday! His counts haven't been over 1.2 since November. (Apparently the normal range is 4.0 to 10.5.) HUGE jump! They took the blood today to run the chimerization labs which is what they use to determine if Theo's bone marrow is 100% donor and none of his. Of course when Dr. Gordon asked Theo if he knew what chimerization is, Theo said, "I know what a Chimera is. The mythical beast that's part goat, part lion and part snake. So, can I have lobster claws? That would be awesome."
