On Monday, our day played out pretty much the same. The kids and I made it to the hospital to see Rassie in the morning. We took him ham, egg and cheese sandwiches for breakfast. Took the kids home for nap and let his parent's stay there and watch them while I went back to the hospital.
Dr. H came by close to 4. He had GREAT news. Rassie's white count was down to 190,000 and he said he would most likely get to come home the next day, Tuesday. What a relief. Dr. H also went over the options of the pill Gleevec and the bone marrow transplant again. Then he told Rassie that they would want to do a bone marrow biopsy to further study the leukemia cells. He told Rassie that he could do this before he was discharged from the hospital or on an out patient basis at the clinic. Rassie opted for the out patient procedure. He still needed to let it sink in a little.
We both slept a little easier that night knowing that he would probably get to come home the next day.
Happy Place....
