It's been a crazy week. Carl went up to visit Dad after the Cardinal's day game yesterday. The Cards lost - so we've had a banner week at the ballpark! Not. Mom and I brought home a loser on Tuesday and Carl didn't do us any good yesterday. Let's hope the Girl Scouts can do better on Monday night when Carl takes Lydia & Quinn.
Just got off the phone with Dad. He had to go because the doctor came in, but he sounded great. He had a pretty good night. He did need blood yesterday afternoon, but it had been 5 days since he got it last. That is really good.
His dizziness is dissipating, so I know he got up and walked yesterday - which makes you feel so much better just to get out of the hospital room.
Thankfully, this round he didn't suffer any mouth sores, so he's been able to maintain his weight and eat on his own.
They keep saying he's doing really well, so we'll go with that! Right now we're waiting for his blood counts to come back. Yesterday his WBCs were still at .1 - he needs to recover those cells to get an immune system back before they let him leave -(which makes complete sense).
Basically, though, if you can visit - DO IT. The company makes the days go by faster. If you can't, send a note or card - it's always good to get mail. He's in room 6907 if you want to call. The number is 314-747-6907.
Thanks for checking in with us. No news is always good news. : )
