Update

We got Malcolm's bloodwork back this morning and his ANC actually fell to day to 312! But - WE'RE HOME!!! The bloodwork is typically done by machine, and is sometimes also counted manually. The doctor asked the lab to verify manually and the manual number (considered more accurate) was 425. So not quite the 500 that is typically required to come home, but close enough in the doctor's estimation. Malcolm stayed up for a late lunch with Jan and I and then fell asleep very quickly in his own little bed. He is still sleeping. Donovan will be home soon from daycare and will undoubtedly be very excited.
