Malcolm had a good week of treatment. The sedation on Tuesday went well and he seemed to feel ok most of the week - only one day where he really ate nothing. He finished his treatment yesterday afternoon and was able to come home for supper yesterday and today on a day pass, which was wonderful (we were glad to be rid of the pole again, at least while he's awake!). We are hoping that day passes will continue for at least the next couple of days. On Monday Malcolm's hemoglobin was 102, platelets were 447 and ANC was 7080. On Thursday hemoglobin was 108, platelets were 238 and ANC was 4410. He will have another CBC (complete blood count) tomorrow so we will see if his counts are starting to fall significantly. Malcolm has been enjoying some of his new birthday gifts.
