Please Say extra prayers for Robby
We had clinic and his counts came back really bad. His anc is 536 but his platelets were only at 70 which they have been at 400 for the longest time. We have 7 days of nerve racking to live through. We asked if any blast were found they said no but the bone marrow has to be over 90% leukemia to spill out in the blood. If his counts don't make a huge rebound by next Fri when he gets tested they will be doing a bone marrow and a spinal tap. They tried to tell us not to worry till next week but that's not going to happen we need to start watching for bleeding gum's, noses, or bruising if anything comes up before fri. we need to call the right away. He won't be going to school this week due to the low counts. Jamie is to start nursing school on Mon. Maddie has flu A which we have to keep her away from Robby the whole count thing could be viral but usually that won't affect the platelets that is usually leukemia that does that. The dr. even went down to the lab to read and observe the cells under the microscope that resured us ever more but we are glad that they are watching him. Right now it is just wait and see next week and lets hope this is some very strange fluke. We just didn't get very good vives or should I say confidence from them but we also freak out very easy. Hope you all enjoyed the photo's. And thanks for the prayers they will be needed this week. You could hear the worry in their voices hopefully it was more my ears and the word relasp never really came up but then again you got the feeling that they were thinking there was a good chance. Pray for us to get through the week and Robby be one of those that the strangest of things happens Thanks I will update after the counts come back next week they want the blood work done at clinic of Fri.
