Chemo's Over

Well, Ryan has had his final dose of chemo for this hospital stay. We pray it is the final dose of chemo for the rest of his life. I was back home today, doing laundry, paying bill, etc. and I talked to him several times - seems like I always happen to call when he's trying to eat :). When I called his this evening around supper time, he was actually out walking in the hallway. He likes to walk down on the first level because there are lots of places to walk and he gets a nice bit of exercise. He was doing an even longer loop today than what we normally do.

Ryan's white count was down to .6 today. His platelets were 14 and his hemoglobin was 9.2. He is feeling well, but couldn't get his doctor to tell him when he might be able to come home yet; he'll keep pestering.

We pray for things to continue to be positive and that the doctor's and nurses are thinking about what is best for Ryan in making future decisions.
