More Delay

Grant's ANC was 740 today....so close. Dr. Akers said that it can fluctuate and if we took it 2o min. later it could have been 760 or 720. I wanted to ask if we could come back this afternoon and try again, but I didn't think she would go for that. ;) So, the plan is to go back on Thursday and hopefully start treatment. This next phase of treatment is in 10 day intervals. So, we wanted to stay on a Monday/Thursday schedule so we could see Dr. Heym at every other visit. Grant has been doing fine at the clinic. They have just been doing a finger poke to get enough blood to do the CBC. However, today his blood clotted in the tube before they were able to run the test, so we had to do it again. He is a little confused about why he keeps going to the clinic and not getting a "poke" (accessed). But, I don't think he is too sad about it. All of his other numbers had gone up and looked really good. Keep praying for Thursday!
