Clinic and Halloween

Here's a few photos from Halloween. We spent last Halloween in the hospital, so this year was terrific! Columbia had its annual Trunk or Treat complete with tons of candy, music and bounce houses. Carson went down early to hit the inflatables before everyone and their germs and had a blast! Unfortunately, when we went back for the actual Trunk or Treat he was already worn out. He lasted about 45 minutes and was done. He slept very well last night though!

Nona is here visiting and got to see the Halloween Parade at preschool on Friday!

Two firemen and a the unique "rapping swimmer" ready for Trunk or Treat.
Thankfully, there were no fires or drive by shootings during the festivities!

Saturday, our "fly girl" participated in a duel meet with North Baltimore Aquatic Club.
Both clubs brought their best of each age group - Curl Burke rocked!

Counts check at the clinic last Thursday was quick and easy. Well, the finger stick to get the counts wasn't easy, but we once again survived. Carson's ANC is a whopping 2000, hemoglobin good and platelets too. Despite a higher ANC than the doctors would like, we are still moving slowing with increases in chemo dosages. These next two weeks we'll increase the methotrexate to right around 100%, but the 6MP will stay right where it is at 50%.

Next clinic visit: November 11th. -Jennifer
