PBMT - Day 84

We had our twice weekly visit to QM this morning for blood test and line care. Mama ran into her high school classmate at QM and she got recognized right away! Adrian was again being assigned in one of the isolated rooms. The nurse clarified the Norovirus ordeal and apparently stool samples were sent to Department of Health for testing but not the labs at the hospital. It takes longer for the result to come back meaning we'll be quarantined everytime we are at the Day Ward. A surprise call from someone at the The Duchess of Kent Children's Hospital at Sandy Bay - Adrian is scheduled for a Neuro-developmental assessment TOMORROW at 10:15am! We are happy that the appointment was scheduled a lot earlier than we'd expected. The blood counts result look good with Neutrophils at 2.61, Platelet at 314 & HGB at 10.8. In fact, it's the one of the best results Adrian has ever had since his treatment started a year ago.

P.S. A big relief for Adrian - he finally poo'ed before we left for QM this morning.

It's amazing how we can get all excited when our kids do basic things like pee or poo. Even at 3.5 years, I still make sure that Kate does not go without poo for longer than 2 days. I think we should remind ourselves in years to come, when the kids are all grown up and in school, that we were once satisfied when they just ate their food and go pee pee or poo poo instead of worrying over their grades! Love that recent picture of Adrian. He looks like a big boy now!
