Day +5

now we think the jumperoo is fun after all.
our first impression of the jumperoo.

sleeping through our transplant.


Now it is day +5 and we're bracing for the bad couple of weeks ahead of us. Max's counts have all dropped as promised:
WBC: .1
Platelet: 176
Neutrophil absolute: .1
his kidney and liver functions are still good. *knock on wood*

Max has been really sleepy the last few days, and still not eating too much. Happily though, when he is awake he is in good spirits and happy to play. Also, he is eating enough so that the docs haven't brought up the idea of an NG tube again. The speech therapist mentioned starting Max with solid food in the next few weeks!!! I'm beginning to think that someday I will get to stop pumping. This is all very very good. *knock on wood*

  5. Praying for a speedy recovery for Max. My daughter had her transplant at CCHMC last december and we were just recently released in May and got to come home in June. It's a long road and I'll be praying for you the whole way!!
