Suuuuper Grant!





It was back to the clinic yesterday. Rudy took the day off to take Grant to the clinic b/c I needed to work. He said that Grant did really well and did little more than say "ouch" when he got his noodle. When we went today, everyone kept saying how great he did yesterday. I think Rudy would like to take the credit, but I had a little talk with Grant before he went. I told him to be extra good for Daddy at the clinic. So, I'm sure that's why he did so great. ;)
His numbers are going down and his ANC was already down to the high risk level. This was to be expected so no surprises. We are anticipating that Grant will need a blood transfusion on Friday. He will get another CBC when he goes for treatment tomorrow.
About the pictures: The capes the boys are wearing were a gift and the boys think they are so fun. Capes make them run really fast! They wore them to the clinic one day and were a hit. We are so thankful for all the kind gestures, meals, and especially prayers we are receiving. We appreciate each one!
Daddy is giving Grant a haircut in the backyard. We bought clippers for home b/c I am cutting Rudy's hair about once a week. What hair Grant does have was getting long and frizzy and needed to be cut. Grant thought it was funny.
Maribel is the nurse that takes Grant's vitals at the clinic every day that we go. She is such a sweet lady and is so great with Grant. When she isn't working with another patient, she comes to the playroom and plays with the kids. Grant loves her and talks about her a lot. All of the nurses really put a lot of effort into knowing the patients.
