First Check up

So we went in on Monday to have his first post chemo check up. As expected his counts were very low. A normal white blood count is between 4.0-7.0 Jason's was .2 on Monday. His platelets were low but his Red blood cells were hanging in there. We go in tomorrow (Thursday) to see how the counts are doing and if he needs a transfusion of anything. Tuesday he was feeling pretty poorly. Very exhausted and just kind of blah, today he looked a whole lot better and is moving around better as well. His appetite is okay OH from last week to Monday he lost 22lbs of water weight. He looks a whole lot less like an umpaloompah now. His potassium was low on Monday so we hooked him up to what is called a baby bottle. Its basically this little infuser that is pressured rigged to infuse medicine through is CVC. It totally looks like a baby bottle with a tube attached. Ms. Wagenbach came over today to get caught up on benefit stuff. Can you beleive its down to a week, time is flying by so fast. I emailed out a list of all the fantastic stuff thats going to be there so come one come all, just rsvp please! Our poor ROO is having to stay at Mimi and Pops right now. He was feeling off all weekend and when he started to spike a fever he had to go stay with them. He went to the doctor and they said he has a virus and some wheezing so he was put on steriods (like his daddy) and upped his inhaler to 4 times a day. Well now he has a pretty wet cough which could be the junk in his lungs breaking up or its turned into something bacterial so he is going back to the dr tomorrow morning. We miss him so much and I cant tell you how horrible it is to have a sick baby and not be able to take care of him....Oh well I know he is in good hands. We skyped him yesterday and will again tomorrow. Hopefully he will be able to come home on Friday or Saturday depending on how Roo is feeling and Jason's blood counts. I will update more when there is more. Keep up the prayers!!! Love Kimmy
