5pm Update

Well - he is still doing well.. he blood sugars are getting in line with a tremendous amount of adjustments to the type, amount and frequency of insulin. They have also dropped the oxygen from 4 to 2.5 and his oxygenation is staying around 93%.

We are pretty sure he will get out either tomorrow or Saturday. He will have to take Neupogen shots for the next 8 days - so we are not home free with the chemo yet but he sure came out on top this morning. One of the reasons they treatments are so far apart is what it does to your blood. So I am praying that it does not knock him down too far.

So early tomorrow we start lobbying the physicians to go home..

Thanks to everyone who has had a hand in prayer and those who actually cared for him.

We could be going home with oxygen and respiratory treatments - we'll see..

take care

Mona
