Doc just stopped by to let us know that the second almost expert looked at Henry's bone marrow and we're about as sure as two docs can be that Henry doesn't have anything bad lurking in his marrow. A third doc will review his bone marrow test and sign off on the findings, which we expect will be very good.Woohoo!
The doc has agreed to take Henry off his current antibiotics and keep him overnight for monitoring. His blood and counts will be checked in the morning but we shouldn't expect great increases in the numbers for a few weeks. If all looks good, we'll be able to leave tomorrow with our on-his-way-to-being-healthy baby boy.
This, of course, means I have to finish my Civ Pro homework tonight.

Zeus be praised!
Mr. "Hi Binky" can return to communing with the critters and crawling the earth as a normal human. We, collectively, are gratified.
Now you can just think of yourselves as occupying the "very sterile" floor as opposed to the oncology floor. As y'all might say, "WOOT!" [1]

YIPPEE!
GREAT NEWS Christie! What an amazing and strong boy you have...

Awesome!! That's great news! But, what was/is it? I mean something has to have caused that, right? Anyway...
Hurray! hooray! yippee! woohoo! Henry's going home!
SO happy for you all....

Yahoo! That is terrific news!
oh also? We have that same soccer squishy ball thing.
just wanted to say... cause it's relevant.
or something..
Woohoo! is right! That is such good news. How are you balancing all this with school??? You are one amazing woman (not to leave Darren out at all--he's just as amazing for balancing this with work--he just didn't write the post)!
dadgummit--you can't say the bone marrow ate your homework??
I am so happy and will stop obsessively checking your blog. what a relief.
Waaahooootie!*
occupying the "very sterile" floor busby brings up a good point: does this mean an even greater degree of cleanliness at the already spic-n-span "The Condo" is required?
Mr. Henry is one amazing little man! Strength and resilience must be genetic.
