SD had his counts rechecked this morning. He is still neutropenic, but his hemoglobin has gone up to 8.4 so we were let go before the full results had completed.
Stephen got off the phone with a DeVos nurse a little while ago. She said that SD's ANC was zero and asked us to bring him down for a bone marrow draw first thing in the morning. Stephen said that she didn't sound really concerned, but this is a procedure he hasn't had since the week he was diagnosed, so the request has shaken us (well, his mommy, at least!). This is not the first time his ANC has bottomed out, but the doctors were surprised by the results today and want to check things out.
We'll be traveling to Grand Rapids this evening and will hopefully know more tomorrow.
Just want you to know you're all in my prayers. You have been constantly in my thoughts since your last post on SD. I will be anxiously awaiting your next update. All my love, Sarah
