Another Worry Gone...

We had Alex's counts checked today to see if he was responding to the increase in his Mercaptapurine dosage. His counts were down to 2,800 - so headed in the right direction. They decided not to adjust his dosage for these final 18 days.

While we were there, I asked about the results from the blood tests to check for precocious puberty. I was relieved to hear that Alex's hormone levels were exactly where they should be for a boy his age.

So, we just need to get him in the shower and wash his face more often - that sounds like a prescription I can handle!
