So Andrew’s transfusion went ok last Friday. We were hoping it would make a big difference, but he lost all his color and threw up a lot. He lost a pound between Friday and Tuesday, and his blood counts were still incredibly low. However, he is still trying to eat as much as he can (half and half with whole milk is his staple drink). We are hoping when we go into the doctor today that his weight and blood counts will be up. We all have been enjoying your comments and words of encouragement so keep ‘em coming!

Hi Andrew, Taylor and Brittany…I am praying that your counts will stablilze. I had my first chemo yesterday, it wasn’t as bad as I thought. Now we will see what side effects I get. I love you and maybe I can stop by on Saturday to see you all.
My words of encouragement…pig out or as another freind of mine says…snark!

keep those half and half milk shakes going. Have you given full fat yogurt a try? Pretty good stuff, we are keeping up our prayers for you. We offered prayers in Capitola California today. Love, Wendy

Stick of butter? Block of cream cheese? (I’m just trying to stay within this dairy theme you have going on here).
Congratulations on loosing the nose hose. Did taking it out feel like you were extracting a really big booger?
