Today the hospital had a trick or treat route set up for kids - mainly in the outpatient areas on the first and second floors. Malcolm tried on a cow costume yesterday and it was super cute but it was extremely warm and fuzzy so today he went as a dalmatian puppy. Daddy came over for the big event. Unfortunately Malcolm was napping when the big group from the sixth floor went together but we went later on our own. Malcolm had fun and got lots of loot, most of which is more suitable for his big brother so Donovan got one treat bag already today. Donovan could not join us as his cold is still hanging on, though gradually improving.
Malcolm's ANC today was 679, hemoglobin was 105 and platelets were 51. Malcolm got to come home for supper tonight but we'll see if same applies for tomorrow. It is surprising to everyone that his counts are falling so slowly. We continue to hope his counts will recover quickly again and we will get out of hospital next week.

So adorable! It's great that the hospital provides such great experiences for the kids in their care and their parents.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that things are going well with Malcolm and I hope that Donovan gets over his cold soon. Hope that you and Jan are doing well too. :o)
