We went for a CBC yesterday and to Children's for the physical therapy evaluation. 

The therapist said Fuller has some nerve damage and loss of flexibility.  He also stumbles a lot with his right foot, which all of course is effects from the chemo.  She is going to work with him on all of that, but we won't know until after he gets off treatment if the nerve damage will be permanent.

I did not hear from the clinic until today about his counts.  While his white count is up, his neutrophils - the white cells that fight infection- are lower than two weeks ago.  He is close to being off chemo altogether.  They of course are very cautious and want us to limit activities. 

We will proceed with caution, but we are also not going to live in fear.  We choose to have faith that God will protect him. 

Have a safe and happy holiday!

With love from the Goldsmiths
