We just received Isaiah's blood counts yesterday. Apparently there was a hold up somewhere in the chain. Isaiah continues to do well. He's still playing and running around like he usually does. The color in his prosthesis is off a bit so we'll schedule an appointment for it to be changed. Mr G, Isaiah's ocularist or Anaplastologist, hand painted the eye before putting it through a kiln. Isaiah's hemoglobin is the lowest it's been since starting chemotherapy ... 8.7. We're hoping it doesn't go down below 8 - he'll have to have a transfusion to bring the Hgb count up. We'll find out next Monday. If it's lower then we'll probably be up at Duke on Tuesday.
Monday's counts:
Hgb: 8.7
Platelets: 168
WBC: 4.1
ANC: 1066
