Hi Jen,

Sorry to hear the fevers continue but I totally agree with Neil...the 0.3 WBC count is something to take note of. This is very likely the beginning of engraftment!

The ganciclovir will take care of the CMV so try not to waste you're (I'm sure) diminished energy worrying about that and please do not think for a moment that Ethan got the CMV from you. He didn't. It was laying dormant in his system and merely 'woke up' again in light of his absent immune system.

Here's hoping and praying the WBC count continues a nice slow and steady rise and that the good ol' neutrophils make their appearance ASAP.

Go Ethan GO!
