Reaction

Carson had a reaction to the IV IG, which began at 10 last night.  We were up until about 2 AM when it was all said and done.  The reaction was not as bad as the one he had about two years ago, but it still wasn't pleasant.  It came with a fever spike, uncontrollable shaking, feeling cold and crying, but lacked the paranoia, hallucinations and thinking Mommy was someone else.

So, it is Tuesday and we are still in the hospital.  The new plan is to continue antibiotics and stay until the fever breaks.  His counts are up (ANC of 1270) and his blood cultures remain negative.

In other news, today was the first day of school.  Here is how Francesca looked on her first day of high school....



And here is what Carson looked like..........obviously he didn't go to school.  Maybe next week.
