Day + 85 Not so Kind!!!

I just received a call from the BMT office and spoke to the nurse.  In the beginning Quinn had copies of antiobodies come up in his body of things that he had as a child that were left untreated.  Bear in mind, he joined us at the age of 7 and there was no way to kinow what he had or not had.  He has continually had a fever blister quite often on his upper lip mostly in the same place.  One of the virus' that was detected in his body is HHV6.  It can be quite serious especially to a person who has had a Bone Marrow Transplant and could cost them their life or to reject the transplant.  This time there were 200 copies detected in his body which is a low number but still there, none the less and in fear of jeopardizing his transplant.  If that happens ... Life will never be the same for anyone again!!  I am so beside myself over this and had hoped that we were past this part.  I was wrong.  At this point he will be put on strong medications that can affect his Kidneys once again.  Worst case scenario would be Renal Failure.  We will take the meds for 2 weeks and wait again for the Engraphment Study and HHV6 tests to come back.  I should know before Monday at the very latest.

Please say a prayer for little Quinn that this Monster leaves his body for good this time.  At this point, I am so upset and am beside myself over this!  Just those nasty thoughts of what the outcome could be for him.  Having a hard time keeping it together just now.  Sorry!

Good Luck to me trying to sleep again tonight!!! NOT
