We all went to Brian's chemo appointment this morning and we were THRILLED to have not heard from anyone regarding the blood cultures taken on Tuesday.
Fred asked our nurse if there were results or any updated information. So far, at almost 48 hours out there is still NO bacteria growing from the cultures.
While this is awesome news, it is also kinda sad to know that Brian's previous hospitalizations were probably unnecessary. Plus, we know that this is his reaction to the meds. Every day two of treatment he gets pretty sick. As we move forward we will have to work with the doctor to prevent unnecessary hospital stays, but still wanting to not ignore fevers just in case of infection. It's going to be a tough act to coordinate.
Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for Brian Robert.
All the kids with their electronics to get us through the appointment. |
A tired boy tuckered out from the week. |
Brian's new calendars. I remade the July calendar because everything was off from Brian's week of low counts that prevented him from getting treatment last week. Everyone enjoyed checking out the new calendars.
Everyone checking out the new calendars. |
Brian excited to see his birthday on there. |
Glad for your good news in the midst of all this difficulty. You all are in our prayers!
