Gil had the central line removed Monday so Wednesday he got to take a 'real' shower, as he put it - no taping and protecting the line. Went to church Wednesday night for practice.
We went to Dr. Ball today. Thursday June 13th; His numbers are going up today (his white cells were at .65k when we left Monday, and are at 2.3 k) - still low but he is really impressing the Doctors.
Although we're getting back to our routine, somethings are still in adjustment - cleaning, playing & taking care of the animals, lifting - Gil tries helping out, but he tires out very quickly but he is growing stronger everyday!
Dr. Ball will be doing blood tests every Thursday for a while to keep an eye on his numbers, make sure they keep heading in the right direction. In August he'll go back to Moffitt for a CAT & PET scan to make sure everything is still good (yay follow-up) .
As for me - it's summer break. Time to catch up on reading, paperwork, maybe some training (running, bike, swim), and sleep - sleep is always good.
There's no place like home!
