so close...

Progress is slow, but the number are still going up and Dr. Ball is very happy. Gil seems to be feeling better, not getting as winded easily.  (hopefully formatting stays)
          6/20     6/27    normal
WBC  3.0       3.3       4.2+
RBC   3.96     4.25     4.3+
HGB  11.7      12.2     14+  This is the one that, when low, he get's winded.
PLT    165      256       140 - 440  necessary for clotting - YAY!

He walked 2 laps around Datsko park last week (about a mile) - it was a little rough at the end, but later that day we went to the mall and walked around before seeing a movie, and he felt good! Maybe we'll walk the park tomorrow - or maybe we'll just get breakfast, hmm....

Got a full day tomorrow as it is: Christian has his annual visit (after all we figure he's about 11 years old), and then we're gonna head south to Mom & Dad's for dinner. Next week is July 4th, so blood work will be on the 3rd, maybe the midnight run for me, and parade in Temple Terrace on the 4th - then we'll collapse for a while! OH - and Gil turns 50 on the 5th!!
