No Chemo

Hunter and I headed to Doernbecher on Monday morning. He didn't pass counts for his ANC. It was at 0.1. Still up from last week. It needs to be at 0.7 to start the next phase. Hunter's other counts were up. Hemoglobin was 9.0. Last week it was 7.6. The reason for the transfusion. Also his platelets were up from 75 to 126. So on Thursday he goes to the Corvallis clinic to get blood drawn to check counts. If he doesn't pass then Hunter has to go back to the clinic on Sunday to check counts then.

He seems to be feeling better and better. Hunter actually came upstairs to play with some of his Christmas presents. Aaron commented this morning, "It is so nice to have him back." We all agree with that.


Since he didn't have chemo, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Hale's for some time with them, cousins, aunts and uncles. Hunter has been spending a lot of time playing games on Uncle Adam and Aunt Jaimes' iphones.

Aaron helped his Dad and brother Adam plant 15 arbor vitae in the rain. It looks really good with them up.
