Yeah!!!!!!

This has been a lonnnnnnngggggg weekend.. especially since we had planned to be home for it. However, our counts are going up again. Today, Michael's hemoglobin was up to 8.3 and his platelet count was up to 53. We could have come home today, but thought we needed to stay for our oncologist appointment tomorrow morning with Dr. Ravi. Want to ask some questions and gather his thoughts as to our progress. We are going to ask him if we can go home for a few days. Michael's platelets have to be 100 before we start another round of chemo. . . . . . . so maybe we can have a few days. This is information that was shared by the triage nurse on Friday. Mom could stand a few days also. Michael really wanted to be home today for the 3rd anniversary of Marc's death. We would have liked to be home to put some flowers out for him. But guess that is not that important. Michael is feeling pretty good. Walked from the parking garage to the lab today. He hasn't done that in over two weeks. Hope to see all real soon......
