Jays white counts are low and since he is having such a positive response to treatment the doctor said there is no need to push him too hard. He is getting another week off and we are looking forward to him being able to rest.

His platelets counts are still low. So the doctor is giving him the platelet booster shot for three days, it's causes fatigue and nausea. All manageable. Counting our Blessing every day! Looking forward to another good weekend!

Jay is doing great. Feeling really good and able to travel. We took the babies to Atlanta to the zoo and aquarium. It was a fun family trip! Looking forward to more weekend trips this spring... If the weather will cooperate!

Jay is having a great week. Energy levels are up, feeling good! His blood work looked good this morning, except his platelets counts were low after last week's treatment. As of right now he goes back Tuesday for another round of chemo. We will see how his platelets look and then the doc will determine if he can begin.

Platelets counts are still a little low but sufficient for moving forward with treatment this week. Praying for a nausea free week!
