Day +13
WBC holding at .7
Hello Max Fans,
Today was pretty uneventful (we like it like that) so I will keep it short. Max's rash is looking better. His face is not as red, though his legs look a tad worse. They really think it was the Hydralazine, one of his blood pressure meds. He was kind of crabby and tired and I really think his teeth are bothering him. He has been biting everything.
Max had PT and OT today and was crabby for both. The highlight of the day was when the PT suggested we allow him to walk to the bath (holding my hands of course). It never occurred to me to try this. For one, the floor is a source of germs and you also need help moving the IV pole. Since he was heading to the tub and his feet could be washed immediately and the PT was managing his IV's we were able to do it. As many relatives can tell you, Max loves to walk around the house holding on to someone's hands. He did well, although he was not as fast and stable as he used to be.
Mike got free Vikings tix from RMH and is going to attempt to take Grace tomorrow night. It will be nice for them to venture out of the RMH/hospital area. We will let you know how that goes.
Please keep praying that Max's counts continue to grow peacefully.
Love,
Margaret
