Wednesday, Day 32
ANC-2880
WBC-3.0
Platelets-23k
Since Monday Hayden has really settled in to his new/old home. Throughout we have maintained a pretty consistant schedule which we hoped has helped. Rick and I are back to work, between clinic visits to UW for check ups and transfusions. Tuesdays are BMT clinic days so we will have to take turns taking him. This past Tuesday I forgot to hold off on his Cyclodine med so he could be tested for Graft vs. Host so we have to go back on Thursday so they put it off until then. He is showing a mild case of GVH on his body, so he has to go back into day treatment on Thursday to be checked again.
He has gone a whole week without having a platelet transfusion which is very good right now. This means his body isn’t destroying them or his body is creating new platelets already. We go back to day treatment tomorrow for platelets and a recheck on GVHD. It was good to see the day treatment nurses again. They had a cake and present for Hayden since it was his birthday.

Hey guys! I am so sad I missed you yesterday!
But I’m glad he’s doing so well! And I’ve been without a computer for a while so I know this is late, but Happy Birthday to Hayden!
I hope the day went well! Take care!
