Cooper had a really good week after chemotherapy and then his platelets and white count went down. He recieved a platelet transfusion 8 days after returning home. That evening he was hospitalized for fever and he was in the hospital for blood cultures and antibiotics for 2 days. After getting out we had a blood draw today. His white count is up so he can be out a little bit. His platelets are too low for chemotherapy tomorrow so they are pushing him until next Friday (Jared's birthday). I am thrilled because Cooper's birthday is this coming Wednesday (September 28th) and he will be able to celebrate at home!! While talking to Primary Childrens today I also found out that he cannot be around anyone who has had the flu nasal mist or an oral polio vaccine within 2 weeks of getting it because they are contagious and Cooper's immune system is very compromised. My kids have to get the shot this year because it isn't live like the mist.
Tonight he was able to go to Korbie's soccer game and he didn't have to sit in the car with me. Good stuff! Right now his best buddy is over, Wyatt Marshall. They posed for a couple of pictures. Abbie and Morgan are over playing with Dalton and Korbie. They are playing Just Dance 2, it is so fun to watch them play. Lol.
