Dad had a rough night last night because his joints and bones started really aching and hurting. He's really stiff today and was pretty uncomfortable. They think it is his white blood cells returning but when I pressed Dad for more info, he didn't have any and he just said, "that's what they think." I was thinking, "What? Nobody has ever had this happen and they can't tell us more?"
He got blood work back while I was there, but the only number missing was the White cell count (weird). They doubted they would see much change in the number today, but hopefully tomorrow. My concern is if the number jumps TOO MUCH - it could be a not so great sign.
Let's keep our fingers crossed.
They have him on some mild pain medication to make him comfortable and we're just hoping it subsides soon.
Two of Dad's Rugby buddies came by while I was there - THANKS! I think it really cheered him up to see you guys! Just having someone else to visit with is always a bonus!
Keep the faith people! Pray for zero blast tolerance in my Dad's system! We want those buggers out of here. Thanks for checking in!
