Below Zero

No, that is not the temperature outside here in San Antonio. That is Austin's blood counts. Sad to say they took a big drop. That's what chemo will do to you. His platelets was in the 40's so they went ahead and gave him a transfusion since the medicine he is on eats up his platelets. We were lucky they ran his transfusion fast and Austin slept through the whole thing. So now we wait and pray for no fever. If he gets a fever he gets admitted to the hospital. So isolation is tight right now. Other then that he has been doing really well. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with all of our family. Austin had the best time playing with his cousins. We were very thankful for yesterday. We go back to Patel's Monday for blood counts. I am sure we will have to get another platelet transfusion some time next week. I will update again Monday.
