Day 6 Boring=Good
Monday, January 23, 2012
This morning Dr. Liepman told us that Carls hemogloblin levels went up from the previous day, which is good news because he did not get more blood. His platelet level dropped which meant that he needed more of those today. The GREAT news that we got today is that if Carl continues to do well he might be able to come home at the end of the week!
Today was a good day for him again, no side effects to the chemo other than dry mouth and his increased need to pee :) He has not yet found anything to satisfy his thirst, which is making him a little frustrated.
Other than that we spent the day relaxing, we watched the movie Speed then ordered Jets for dinner... I swear he never is sick of pepperoni pizza!! We are planning on going to bed early tonight.
As soon as the Doctor is here tomorrow I am going to work for a short day. Bonnie is planning on spending the day with Carl. Hopefully he can get more rest tomorrow as Wednesday is going to be a very busy day!!
