May 25 Day +8

We are back at the Kohl's house!  What a relief - all of his blood cultures came back negative and there was no indication of an infection and since he was fever free for 48 hours we are back to some freedom.  His ANC is basically non-existent, there were no results b/c there was nothing to test so he received a blood transfusion on Thursday. His platelets are at 90 and they say that it is expected to drop some more over the weekend.  We were told to avoid monkey bars and playgrounds in case of falls and injuries and we are to watch for any unusual bruising and call the ER when this occurs.   Connor is trying his best to drink his fluids but we received more bags of IV fluids to administer at night.  This means that he won't be able to get a good night's rest since he wakes up every few hours to go potty. 

I hope you all have a great memorial day weekend!  We hope to have a quiet uneventful weekend with lots of video games and card games.

Good night!

Hoping for a restful weekend for you guys and that only positive things happen. Is there a game, played like Words with Friends, that you can think of that he and I can play back and forth from our pads? That would be so cool. Talk tomorrow ...
