Another party

Malcolm is doing well. He and Donovan both had fun at the Christmas party in the playroom this morning. Pics and more details to follow. We are all having a good time with Grandma Lee - Donovan has her all to himself this afternoon at home. We will all have supper together again at the hospital. Malcolm's ANC is still zero but his platelets are up to 140 and his hemoglobin increased to 76. We are hopeful Malcolm's ANC will start increasing tomorrow and that we will be home by the weekend.

Some of you have been wondering if we will be home by Christmas and the answer is yes, we expect to go home soon - normally once his ANC starts rising it only takes a few days to recover to 500 and we are expecting his ANC to start rising within the next few days. The doctors had predicted we would be in hospital for about 4 weeks this round and it will be 4 weeks tomorrow.
