Close Call....Whew!

Carson visited the clinic today for a counts check and to let the doctors at the clinic get a view of his blistery nose, lip and eye.

  • Counts low? Yes, ANC of only 600.
  • Blistery nose, lip, eye? Probably impetigo.
  • Contagious? Yes.
  • Need to switch antibiotics? Yes.
  • Need to hold his chemo? No, continue as before.
  • Need to stay home from the beach? NO!!!
  • Can you say Hallelujah?! YES!!

We have been really looking forward to this trip, so we are now even more excited.

At the beach we'll be guests of Believe In Tomorrow. A great organization that offers respite housing to families with children in treatment for serious illness. We have heard nothing but wonderful things about this place, so we will be packing up the Tahoe and headin' out!

We'll post again when we get there......
