Max's adenovirus quantity from Tuesday: ZERO!!!! His anc had gone up as well to 1.24 and his wbc is still around 2.5 so that's also very good. Max also started trying to clap his hands on Tuesday. It happened so suddenly, we haven't even been working on it. We've been trying to get him to say bye bye and wave, so when he waved bye-bye for the home-care nurse we were very proud and all started clapping and saying good job. He started clapping and smiling too! I thought he was just trying to show off for some reason that day, but he's been doing it since and he even clapped for our speech therapist today! We're still having a difficult time getting him to eat solids, but he seems to really like salty crackers. He's for now gaining weight and getting taller from the formula he eats too. He's now 8.9 kgs and 75.5 cms. He's almost average size!!!
On a negative note, Max's C-diff came back so now he has to take Vancomycin 4 times a day and it is some nasty stuff. Also, we're still waiting for our engraftment results from the second boost, I really hope we get some good news in the next couple of weeks about that.
Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle were here over the last few days, so I added some pictures.

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear adeno is zero it took forever for that to happen to us and I'll be praying that nasty stuff stays away! Hope Cdiff and the vanc go away too! Keep strong you guys are so close to getting out of there!!
I'll be praying for both of you and for Max's cells to GROW!!!!
