The economy isn't the only thing tanking, now Henry's red blood cells are "trending downwards." The doctors are going to continue drawing blood a few times a week until Henry's doctor returns, he's currently out of the country, and we have to schedule a second bone marrow test. Ugh.
Oh, and Henry's neutrophil count is decreasing as Darr and I anticipated. Today, they are at 900. Still much higher than is normal for Monsieur Henry but he's once again officially neutropenic. We suspect those numbers will return to the 100-200 range by the next draw, which will take place on Friday.

Ugh, ugh, ugh. I'm so sorry to hear this. Is this the first time that H's red blood cells have been low? I repeat... ugh.
Let's make those pies real soon.
That sucks. I'm so sorry you three have to go through all this.
Oh man. I'm so so so sorry to hear this.
Does the fact that the numbers spiked during his cold rule anything out? Make anything more likely? Or you have to wait for the Dr. to come back? Out of the country? Doesn't he know Henry needs him??!!!?!
I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for higher stabilized numbers.
arg! ditto, Ms. A.
Oh the not knowing. Ugh. C'mon little nutraphils!
