We just met with the doctor.
Alex's ANC counts are continuing to drop (now down to 600). His Platelets are up from 13 last night to 14 today - normal is about 30. If his counts keep dropping, he'll have another transfusion tomorrow with Platelets, and possibly more whole blood (thanks to all of you who donate blood and/or platelets!)
So, we are stuck here until Alex is free of fever for 48 hours...I asked what defined a fever - they said over 100.1 - it was just 99.9...ugh - let's all hope it does not rise anymore!

Thinking of you guys again today. I hope his fever stays down and his counts go up! Alex is such a strong little trooper...I hope he gets to go home soon.
