We are still waiting for Leo’s blood counts to go up, which is making us a little nervous; the team is giving him one more week off chemo. Apparently it can take up to 3 weeks for the little ones to recover after this last month of treatment, but fast recovery is what they aim for. He got hit pretty hard during his last round of treatment!

Hopefully by next Monday, he will be ready (they want his ANC to be at least 750) and we won’t have to perform a bone marrow biopsy on Tuesday to understand what is keeping him for growing his cells at a faster pace. We are thinking that he fought against a little cold, which might be the reason why he got stuck at 300 between last Thursday and yesterday.

Well, let’s keep our fingers crossed and, as always, hope for the best! In the meantime, still no outside activities to be safe: it seems long, but still no complaints from our little one!
