Today was day 28 of the induction phase!!! We won’t know his next treatment plan until next Tuesday April 1st. Then we will have the results from today’s bone marrow and they will know how to proceed. He also had his lumbar puncture w/chemo when they did his bone marrow. He also had his routine bloodwork done at the clinic this morning. His counts were really good and all is going extremely well. His ANC was 2100!!! Today was the last day of his dexamethasone (steroids) and the yucky zantac. So this week he will only be on his daily blood pressure medicine and Bactrim which is only 3 days a week. He was amazing today as always and didn’t cry once!! All the procedures, poking his finger, accessing his port, de-accessing the port, hooking up to monitors…. he was good with all of it. I guess he is getting used to the routine now and he just goes with it.
