2nd BMT – Day+20 ANC 294 WBC 1.3 Platelets 98

Posted on March 26, 2013 by Nana

Nana: Today has been a good day. Liam went to sleep last on my lap at 9:30pm. He woke up at 8am when they came in to do his vitals. He did have some leg pain around midnight. But He has been happy all day, he even took two naps. The doctors are very pleased with his progress. They are going to place an NG tube tonight. He is still not eating much. He has been able to eat little bits without getting sick. But he is not wanting to take his oral meds. So this will make it easier for him to take the meds without getting sick. Not really sure how well Liam will like this praying he will leave it in. They will be doing his bone marrow test next week. Please pray that Noa’s cell are out numbering Liam’s.

Warrior Liam, took his meds orally! So no NG tube tonight 🙂

Liam watching Elmo!

2nd BMT – DAY +18 & 19

Posted on March 25, 2013 by Nana

Day +18 ANC 279
Day +19 ANC 200 WBC 1.0
His count went down from yesterday, but that is normal. Liam has had a good day overall. He has had some pain in his legs yesterday and today. But it didn’t stop him from playing. He played all morning, racing Papa across the room and back. Resting now, he has been sleeping since 2pm. ~ Nana

2nd BMT – DAY +14

Posted on March 20, 2013 by Nana

MOMMY: Day+14~Liams ANC is 50. It’s surprising that it didn’t go back down. I hope it continues to go up from here! Liam has been throwing up and his bottom is raw, no fun in that area. He’s still going strong though.

2nd BMT – DAY +9

Posted on March 15, 2013 by Nana

MOMMY: Day+9 and Liam is still rocking this transplant! He has had bumps along the way, but his strength leaves me speechless. His liver enzymes went up a little more but they still think it is medication related. It’s a beautiful day, knowing Liam is doing well on what the doctors, consider to be the hardest. Liam also got a chest x ray to check for anything not normal. This momma got a full nights sleep!!! Thank you Dad and Mom, for always being here for me. I couldn’t do this without you ♥

2nd BMT – DAY +8

Posted on March 14, 2013 by Nana

MOMMY: Day+8~Liams liver enzymes are elevated so they are switching one of his antibiotics to see if that helps. They said that this can happen, so now just wait and watch. Liam is doing as well as you can going through a transplant, and I hope it doesn’t change! God is amazing 🙂
