Pop Up Date 4/11/2008
Hello all,
Pop came down from his high about last Thursday. he slowly fell into his low over the weekend, and was really tired last night when i went to see him. This morning he got his blood test, his platelets dropped to 12, his hemoglobin to 7.7 and his white count is hanging at 1.2. I am glad for that, because his last transfusion gave him such a reaction, it had mom scared. I am afraid he may be rejecting the blood. if he gets a refill tomorrow, I'll keep you all posted.
Belle has been with pop this week due to spring break. They have been doing the 100 piece puzzles. It amazes him that she will put one together from the bottom up. Today they are starting a 350 piece. Pop is excited. They nap together, and Belle has remarked that she enjoys her naps with her Pop. I am glad the dad gets to spend time with her. Time that she will remember.
Don't feel real talkative now, but will write more when i have more info.
Thanks.
Scott
Son of Bob
