White Blood Cell Count Arrives
The counts are starting to roll in and we're pretty excited up here. David's white blood count is 0.7, which may not sound like much, but we went from .3 to .6 to .7 in two days and the upward climb definitely means we're moving in the right direction. David is feeling okay and we're hoping that he'll start to feel better as the counts continue to climb. He's very puffy in his hands and feet (due to all the fluids he's getting), but at least he no longer looks like he went 9 rounds with Rocky himself -- he actually looks great. We continue to listen to music, watch movies, troll the web for new sites, and wait patiently for those numbers to peak! Your notes, emails, and packages are wonderful, and make it much easier to be sequestered in this room. We love you!

HOLY AWESOME NEWS! I feel so behind the eight-ball to be just reading this blog now ... hopefully this is "old" news and the "new" news is that the counts are already even higher!!! This just absolutely made my day (and I'm not even what you'd call a numbers person) - :). Love the upward climb! The sun is shining!
