Autologous Cord Blood (Stem Cell) Transplantation - Day 41

Adrian's Neutrophils was at the benchmark 1.0 today... The nurse specialist advised us that after tomorrow, blood will no longer be drawn daily but rather every Monday & Thursday only. We talked to Dr Chan again about adding a few more 3F8 courses for Adrian and he's agreed to give 1 more 3F8 to baby and he thinks it'll be enough. Though we thought more 3F8s will minimize the possibility of a relapse but he said if the disease progress, it doesn't matter how many 3F8 the patient have received. We also voiced out our concern about Adrian's delayed motor development skills associated specially on his "mouth" in terms of chewing or talking. He's going to refer baby to see an Occupational Therapist for our concern.
