Adrian's Neutrophils is finally up at 0.99 after having 4 GCSF shots this week. However, his Platelet is still low at 25 and the minimum needs to be at 100 in order for RT to start. Hopefully the peanut skin soup I made today will do the trick. There's a newborn next to Adrian's assigned crib today at the day ward and the parents asked me what disease Adrian had when we were about to leave.... I was hesitant to tell them the truth and so I simply told them he has cancer and left! It gets tiring to answer the same question over and over again (either with medical students or strangers) and it's been painful for me to recall how/when/why/what happened with Adrian....
