Jack had his dr's appointment today back at the clinic at the hospital to check his levels after having his chemo treatment. We expected them to be low, and they were, so we had to stay for a little bit so he could get a platelet transfusion. His main Dr walked by and saw him and did a double take and with his eyes wide open he said, "wow, he looks great." He sounded a bit surprised so we are taking that as a good thing! Jack has been so full of energy and acting like his normal self when he should feel as if he is down for the count. We go back on Thursday to check levels again and if they are lower, he will probably need blood. He is doing great with taking his medicines, doing mouth care, and taking his shots at home. He struggles at times when he really doesn't feel like taking a time out from playing to do any of these things, but he is doing well for what he has been going through.
We have to thank you all again for all the love, support, and prayers that are being sent our way. Zac and I are just amazed by how many people want to help and how many people are going out of their way to show their love for our little boy. It is truly amazing and there are many times when we just don't know what to say except thank you. We wish we could see each and every one of you to express our gratitude and hopefully one day that will happen!
