Wednesday was actually a quick clinic visit....we did a finger poke and about two hours later we were going home. Eli was pretty mad about the poke, but he got over it pretty quickly. His counts still look good, but we are going down. His ANC is now 1590, down from 2900 when we left the hospital on Sat. That is still a good number, but we just have no idea how low it will go this time. So, we are still doing some stuff, but no more seeing lots of people at once.

The mouth sores have come back, so we have had some difficult nights. It isn't horrible, which is a blessing, but it is still tough on us. And again, I bet we will get rid of them as soon as we have to go back into the hospital on Wednesday.

Eli's next MRI is scheduled for May 30. They will go in to see if his lesions have changed any with the methotrexate they have been giving him. We haven't had any type of seizures again, so that is a good sign, but we won't know for sure until we get the pics.

And we have new hair!! He is definitely growing some new hair fuzz on top. It looks a little darker than before, I think. I am not sure if he will lose it in this next phase, he may. Some kids grow it back during Long Term Maint, and some don't . I guess we will see. It is funny how used to him bald I have gotten, I looked at a picture of him from January and was shocked at how he looked.

Prayer requests are that we continue feeing good, no hospital visits, and good counts. Thanks!!
