March 5 - Blood Work

Happy Monday! We are now over a week out from the major drop and hoping that today will continue to bring the increase that we were seeing last week. Today is crazy hat day at school and Levi anted to wear his Rocky hat!

We got to the lab and he picked out his band-aid and had to have a paw patrol band-aid to go with his whole paw patrol outfit.

He climbed up in the chair and was in a good mood waiting for P to come over.

The draw went fairly well and we were off to the treasure box before we knew it. Levi found an avengers glow stick and was excited by it!

Then it was off to school and to wait for counts to come in. By 12:30 counts still hasn't come in and both Jay and I were getting frustrated. Jay took it upon himself to call medical records and get them to fax the results over, which they did right away, but there fax is so horrible its hard to read. After debating the results we came up with a count of 366. At 3pm the real fax results came in (still have no idea how it takes them so long to fax a stat lab) and the actual count is 368. A great number and an awesome increase from Thursday. In the end we definitely made the right decision last week to not give Levi another infusion. It was a stressful decision, but the right one in the end. Hindsight makes everything 20-20.
