Day 26

We survived our first check up. It surprisingly only took four hours. First they took his temperature, blood pressure, weighed him, and measured him (Vital signs). Then we waited, they drew his blood and we waited some more. Then we saw the Dr. who went over his lab results. He needed more GCSF to boost his ANC level which was at 750. They say his ANC level will fluctuate up and down but should start to maintain on its own around two months after transplant. We had to wait for the pharmacy to send up the GCSF. It had to be infuse threw his central line. He also takes a med to prevent Graft vs. host diseases. He has too high of level so we will be changing his dose tomorrow. He is happy because he didn’t have to take that med to night and won’t have to take it in the morning either. But we will have to go in again tomorrow to recheck the level. Over all it was a good day Bridger’s favorite part of the day was playing checkers multiple times with his grandma.
