Home again.

Today was the last chemo treatment of the first consolidation round. He had 2 hours last night and 2 hours this morning at 6:00am. I got up to the hospital around 11:00am and he was a little nauseated. They told us the doctor wanted to come in and check on him before they let him go. We left around 12:00 and got home around 12:30.
We are both excited to be here, but it won't last too long. We have to go back in on Thursday and have blood tests to see where his counts are, and then they might admit him or let him go home for a day or two. When the counts are really low, they will admit him and may have to do tranfusions and platlets to get his counts to come up again. After they are good he will get to come home for a week or two and then hopefully they will have a donor and be ready to transplant. If not they will have to do another consolidation round of chemo again and be ready again for the transplant. In order to do the transplant, they have to have this chemo process to kill the last of the leukemia cells and then get the good cells to come up to normal and then they can do the transplant. So we just have to be patient for the right time and know that Heavenly Father is watching over us and the right thing will happen. I am so grateful that things have gone as well as they have. I know he could be a lot worse off. Even though he had some really rough times, we have been very blessed and know that our prayers are being answered. Thanks again for your concern and prayers.
