Day 12

Alison's white blood count is to 600! and her fighting infection white cells are at 500 which mean she has enough of an immune system to be taken off of her many antibiotics and is clear to walk outside again!!! Her platelets are staying in a decent range and her red blood cells are great. We are hoping to have my sweet wife home by next week!! This is a real tender time in our lives. We hope everything will continue to run well. We are starting to plan for the next step. Alison's parents already have a system to keep the house clean and sanitized and they are getting the kids whipped into shape. We could not have done this (Me being at the hospital) without them. I also have a great supervisor at work who has been very supportive. I could not ask for better in-laws or a better place to work right now.

Alison sends her love. She is ready to get out of the hospital. She is currently filling her time with resting, walking and making sure I complete my honey-do's ( which is a sign of health). We thank you again for your prayers.
