The start of round four has been delayed for a week. Malcolm had bloodwork done today and his ANC was 697 - it needs to be 1,000 to start the next round. This is not a huge surprise given that Malcolm's ANC was so low last week and given that he has yet to start a round on time! His hemoglobin and platelets were nice and high at 115 and 469.The dressing change was delayed until tomorrow. His echo (ultrasound of the heart) is also scheduled for tomorrow - bright and early at 8:15am. Malcolm's blood will be tested again next Monday and we now expect round four to start next Tuesday, October 19.
