Count update

Oliver's total WBC dove down to 1.0 with an ANC of only 310 making him immune compromised right now. So much for going to the park tomorrow! We will however continue going on our walks in the stroller weather permitting.

His reds are doing alright just below normal with excellent platelets, however.

He seems fine. Had a slight runny nose the past few days but that seems to be cleared up or eased up today as far as I can tell.

His next check is Wednesday with a possible treatment day of Thursday if his counts are ok. They may stop increasing the dose of the one med he gets if it makes his anc go too low for too long. We just have these last 3 treatments to get through before a break and then we start full maintenance. He is scheduled to finish up before the year is up, but if his counts cause any delays, that may take us into January some but still, the next step is going to be much easier on him and us. He will be able to start going back to school as well once we get into it and his counts are stable.

Off for a walk with the boys now. Be back with an update on Wednesday.
