Whoosh

Big sigh of relief tonight.

We got through another day of screenings at the hospital

(checks to make sure the big C hasn't come back to torture us).

One of the best things about going to the clinic is Miss Jenn.

As a Child Life Specialist, her job is to play with the kiddos.

Kean loves her--

 and pleasantly shocked both of us by telling her some of his

favorite foods he likes to eat (without prompting).
That's a big deal, folks!

Here's the rundown.

Kean's counts are all looking fabulous.

His neutraphils (ability to fight germs) are still quite low

but slowly, slowly inching up.

The doc said once in a while it takes a kid much longer

to recover.  Guess we have that "once in a while kid".

I like to tell myself, slow and steady wins the race, right?!?!
