September 6 - Blood Work

September 6 - Blood Work

Happy Thursday!! :) It's another great week! We got to the lab this morning and there was no waiting. Levi went running right in and picked out his band-aid. He picked out a pokemon band-aid and then asked me to look up who it was. He climbed up into P's chair and we snapped our pictures there.

 Then P brought over the tablet and Levi started playing connect 4. Then P started the blood draw. Close to the end of the draw Levi won connect 4 for the first time ever! He truly won!! He started cheering and was so so so excited! He jumped up and down and put his hands in the air! It was the absolute most amazing thing ever.

Then he was off to the treasure box. P had gone shopping since Tuesday and the treasure box was full! Levi was very excited when he took the cover off the box!! He dug around in there and ended up finding green finger rockets!! He was so excited. Then P helped him open them so that he didn't have to have the box anymore.

Since it was Thursday we were off to the donut lady. He walked over to give hugs and then was excited to see that there were several with sprinkles. And that the sprinkles had green ones!! I saw the sprinkles and was a little dismayed that they have gone to fall colored sprinkles. I am not ready for it to be fall yet!!

 Then we were off to the car to head to school!

Counts came in about 35 minutes later today which is great. We were a little concerned about what his counts would be today as he has several nasty bruises, but we were very excited to find out that counts today were 190!! Only a drop of 2!! Hopefully we will level out here in the high 100s for a bit again like we did last time and make it a few more weeks before we have to head up for an infusion.

Next Plan: Blood work again on Monday.
