What we have waited for!

This is a little late and I am so sorry but I had to attend my annual shopping trip with my sisters! Before I left for my trip I took Z to see Dr. Rob. He examed him, played a few games with him and they took his blood. He told me that he felt that the worst is behind us with Z and that we would have some good news with these results.

Jason got the call that evening that Z's bloodwork was the best it had ever been. Yay!!!! He called me at the hotel to let me know. His liver and spleen were normal in size this time too...they had always been a little bit enlarged. I celebrated this weekend by drinking some wine and buying my little man some clothes. Bigger clothes.

I still wonder what was wrong with him but I don't know if we will ever know. Dr. Rob called him a "hero" and I tend to agree. I see my little man getting stronger by the day and in my heart I believe he is going to be okay.

Good news...

We saw Dr. Rob today for a CBC. He called me this evening to tell me that Z's bloodwork was normal!!! He said a few numbers were a bit elevated but it appears to be normal for Z and it was nothing concerning. His monocytes were the best they have EVER been!

He was hamming it up for everyone and showing all his new tricks and getting lots of attention from the nurses and staff. He's gonna be a handful!

I must say this is the most positive I have felt about his situation in a LONG time. I think he saved it all up until he knew I was having a bad day and then he thought he'd give me some good news. :-) Little stinker. I think I will always fear that the worst is not behind us, but for now, I'm celebrating. Z is celebrating by sleeping. ha ha ha If only Jonathan would sleep...

His surgery is Wednesday and I will update after that.

Have a great evening!
