Oliver's ANC is down to 136 so he is now immune compromised and can't go to school.
We will check his counts again on Thursday morning.
He seems ok, just more hungry than usual if I had to say, but no signs of any illness at this time.
His other counts are ok with his RBC at 3.75 slightly below normal. HGB at 11.9 which is fine and excellent platelets at 251K
His WBC was at .8 with his ANC only being 17% of that really low number!
In other news, we are trying hard core with potty now and just went straight to underpants during waking hours. There came a point where he was just demanding a diaper (as opposed to a pull-up as well). He has had one accident but its a good thing, he needs to know the consequence so he can stop and run to the potty now. We know he can do it, he has done it many times but now he has no more fall back. Hoping it works this time.
They will take him off oral meds until he is back up to 750 (above 500 puts him out of the danger level, however). His hair had started to fall out again. I gave him a buzz last night, but now that he is going off meds that might slow down or stop all together.
His school may have to provide some kind of home service, waiting to hear about that still.
Until Thursday...
