Day 43

Mom said Dad was complaining some today, so he must be getting back to normal (kiddingly). Dad had some visitors today, which was great! Thank you to them!

The news for the day is Dad's WBC count is at 1.3, down from 1.6 (which is fine) and his ANC (neutrophil) count was in the 600s, up from the 300s. Remember these numbers will fluctuate. His red blood cells and platelets are holding steady, so no blood or platelet transfused tonight (which is great!).

He is really trying to eat and get something in him because he admits he's very weak. They took a very short walk today and hope to try again tomorrow.

That's it for today, nothing much new. We're all just grateful to be through the weird episodes he was having.

God bless!
