WOW!  Ed has another week of "doing his time" as he calls it, under his belt.  So far, so good......knock on wood.  His appetite was actually a little better and he ate breakfast this morning.  He slept pretty well last night and told the doctor he's really, really, REALLY ready to go home.  So far his ANC (absolute neutrophil count) is still at 0, but that's expected.  It has to be at point 5 for 2 days in a row before he can go home, but the doctor said that could happen by early next week.  We will still undoubetedly have to go to Tiverton House for a bit, but since we can't really plan anything for certain yet, we're still just taking it one day at a time. 

So thankfully, there isn't much to report again, but we'll take it!

Ed is catching up on lots of Ice Road Truckers and Pawn Stars.  He got so tired of the Casey Anthony media coverage that he had to turn off the news!  Thank goodness......all that yelling and agruing is exhausting.

Have a wonderful weekend.

  1. The cars are coming and going from your house at strange times- but when I hear a car leaving at odd time of the night - I always fear that Ed has hit a speed bump. Just know that the prayers circle has enveloped Ed like a security blanket, and the good wishes and positive thoughts are carrying both of you through this. Liz, please know that your blog is carrying us through this, painful and worrying time. thank you taking to time to keep us all up to speed. God Bless Ed - hang in there with courage and strength and Liz by your side you will find victory in this battle. Lyndsay & Peter
