January 29th update

Bennett’s ANC today is  768   from 1,365 six days ago.   A pretty big drop in just a few days but a pretty good ANC considering his flu.  His WBC is 1.6 from 2.1 and neutrophils are 48 from 66.  His hemoglobin is good at 12.3 and platelets at 142.   His metabolic panel was good except for his liver levels. Still high at 116 and 283.  His oncology Dr. wanted his counts checked because of his stomach flu sickness.   She wants to hold any chemo pills until he starts feeling better, no nausea or diarrhea for 48 hours than,  he can start back taking them.

He didn’t feel very good this morning. He slept most of the day. He is eating better which is good news.    He has been awake this evening visiting with Lindy. 

The freshman basketball team won the championship last night against Harrisburg by about 15 points.  Bennett has practice tomorrow but not sure he needs to go since his hasn’t built up his strength yet.  We pray by Monday, he is back to normal.

Hamilton woke up at 4:00 a.m. throwing up. He was sick for a couple hours and he didn’t like it at all.  He hated the feeling of throwing up.  He started feeling better after lunch and by this evening, he is doing really good.  I am so glad he can bounce back to quick and which I could say the same for Bennett.  Sid is feeling a little quizzy this evening.  Sometimes you can spray Lysol and clean and it doesn’t seem to keep from passing it around.  

It started snowing about 6:30 tonight, it’s finally covering the ground.  It’s really a beautiful sight!  Hope everyone is careful driving in this.

Hope you all have a blessed weekend.
