Doing much better!!!

Caine is doing much better this week as far as nausea is concerned.  His appetite is starting to come back so that helps as well.

Caine even went to his first hockey practice on Sunday.  He only made it 30 minutes but did well.  He said he will continue to try.  My brother Ken is coaching so helps alot

Caine is done the hard drugs but now his counts are starting to take a hit.  On Monday is hemoglobin, platelets and neutrophils were all down.  So the plan was to get a platelet transfusion on Tuesday (which we did and it really perked him.up) and on Friday he will have another blood transfusion for his hemoglobin.  His neutrophils are coming down slowly so he is still high enough to do things but just on the edge of "house arrest".  So once we get to Friday we will know what the weekend holds.

Also as a family we had my Grandma pass away at the young age of 97.  We will miss her dearly but know she isnt in pain anymore and reunited with Grandpa, my Dad, my Uncle Rick and her family.  Love you always.
