On August 14, 2015 by Michelle LoveThere are a couple of very frustrated people in this room! We want to go home! BJ isn’t getting discharged today, even though he hasn’t had a fever in over 48 hours.

Pet Therapy smiles
On August 12, 2015 by Michelle LoveThey started BJ on IV antibiotics last night, and thankfully his fever broke at some point during the night. He didn’t sleep very much because his arms are hurting and he couldn’t get comfortable. We think this is from the neulasta shot he got a week ago. His lab work from this morning showed his Read More

Soup in the summer. Whatever he wants.
On August 10, 2015 by Michelle LoveBlood is amazing!!…the 2 units that BJ received on Thursday made him feel so much better. He’s still feeling weak, but he could walk a little further without getting short of breath and nauseated. Yesterday he said he thought it might be lower again because he was beginning to feel more tired and weak again. Read More
Blood and Platelets again
On August 6, 2015 by Michelle LoveBJ had an appointment this morning to check his blood counts. He is very weak. It is expected that he will need blood and platelets throughout the next few weeks. His platelet count was only 10,000 so he received a unit of platelets. (He just had a unit 4 days ago.) His hemoglobin was also Read More
Zero white blood cells and more platelets
On August 3, 2015 by Michelle LoveThe Ara-C from the last 2 weeks has done exactly what they expected it to do. Lab work from this morning showed that BJ’s white blood cell count is zero. For the next 3 weeks or so, we’ll be hypersensitive in checking for fevers and making sure he doesn’t get sick. He has no working Read More
