This weekend is looking so much brighter for Quinn and the family. We planted flowers, he about rode the wheels off of his schooter and ate like a horse!!! What a wonderful feeling that was for Mom! His copies dropped significantly in his body and am expecting that by weeks end they will be much less. They dropped 1100 with new meds in one weeks time. Currently we are weaning him off of the Tacrolimis which is keeping his counts low. Once we get him off of this, his baby immune system should be smart enough to kick in and attach whatever shows up including the copies!
Thursday morning we go to get the Hickman out at 8:00. What a blessing that will be all the way around. It hasnt been used for a long time. Just maintaining it everyday. It has been ages since he has needed a transfusion. Yeah Quinn! His WC and Platelets are holding steady.
All in all he is doing well and I am starting to rest a bit easier. It is hard going through this process ... the wondering and waiting. I am not patient at all so that makes it harder and the other stresses of life come into play also. Just knowing Quinn is getting better is at the top of my list.
Next week Juen and Ming are coming for a week long visit. We are so excited! I promised him back in January that as soon as he was up to it we would have them out. That was his only wish to me. Well, he has earned that wish over and again. Juen comes in on Sunday and Ming comes on Monday. These beautiful girls were in the orphanage in China with him and they were known as "The Three Musketeers" or so he calls them. Both girls were adopted to families that are awesome! And we are able to keep the kids together. What a blessing that is in itself!
