Keeping On

Today we had a nurse come out to the house to draw Ryan's blood. We are hoping that this arrangement will lessen the time that he has to be setting at Wayne Hospital waiting for blood results and then blood or platelets if he needs them. Ryan's white count was .1 on Monday and .26 today. It is beginning to come up from the chemotherapy two weeks ago. His platelets were 7 so he had to get some platelets today, but his hemoglobin was 9.4, so that wasn't needed today.

Except for one small handle on the sandbox cover, the swingset is done! We also got the cistern covered tonight so it will be safer outside for Aubrey and other kids who come to play. Thanks to Ben, Jason and Amy, and my parents for getting the work done!

Ryan is running a fever tonight. Please pray that it will go away.
