5th day of Cycle 6

Coop ended up getting a fever of 102 yesterday, possibly due to the chemo, an infection or a virus.  When he gets a fever they start blood cultures and antibiotics.  His fever continued through the night.  Not sure if he has one this morning yet, he is still sleeping. 

He will be getting a blood transfusion today.  We should also find out the results from the bone scan he had yesterday.  Since the first round of tests the doctor has been watching 2 areas, one in the lungs and one on his femur.  The chest CT results came back yesterday and the spot on the lungs is definately not cancer, hooray!  We are still waiting to hear about the femur.

 Sounds like Coop will be discharged tomorrow at 6 p.m.  He really wants to ride his bike in the 4th of July parade and he decorated it before we left, guess we will see how he feels when we get back.
