Theo had a really good day today. His white count was 10.77 and his ANC was 8500. Those are about as high as they can get, so now they are going to stop giving him the meds that boost those counts and they will drop a little but then even out on their own. The good thing about stopping the neutrophil (ANC) medicine is that that is the one that can cause the bone pain. He only had a little discomfort today and Tylenol pretty much did the trick.
Almost all of his meds were already switched to pill form this morning, so the only thing running through his line for most of the day was heparin. They are weaning him off of the TPN (intravenous nutrition) and he should be off of that by tomorrow evening. things are really moving forward!
My bud Pw Gopal flew in to spend the weekend with us and brought Theo a sweet '63 Harmony Rocket Electric Guitar! He loved it. Then my pal Shane Winnings stopped by today to give Theo a smock from Iraq that soldiers wear to protect themselves from the sun and sand. Theo put it on and looked like a Camo-Ninja!
All in all he had a great weekend. Brady comes over in the am to spend the day/night with us so the good times will continue!
Love to you all...
