Today, Monday, Carson's white blood cell counts went down to 14,000! He has been going out of the room more, and feeling somewhat better. His steroids have been making him have more of an appetite. When I got back from my vacation bible school, Carson was eating chicken noodle soup. The lady who brought me from VBS to the hospital, stopped by a Wendy's to get lunch. When I got into the room Carson smelled the french fries and asked for some. He's been eating some skittles and asking for cupcakes. He has been enjoying the movie The Shaggy Dog and loving the plasma car. The plasma car is a car that doesn't have pedals. You move around by moving the steering wheel. Yesterday we got Carson two balloons. A Get Well balloon and a Smiley Face.
Thank you to everyone who has been praying and please keep praying for Carson's leukemia to go away. And a thank you to everyone who has visited us in the hospital and helping us out.

ReplyDeleteThanks Francesca for giving us an update. We are so happy to hear that he is feeling better! You bet we are all praying for Carson...and you know with all the people we have in the Kickhoefer house that is a lot of prayers. We miss you!
ReplyDeleteI could not believe the news about Carson when I read Quang's note this morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all and we can't wait for another chance to all get together again and listen to more of Carson's stories.
