Philippians 1:19 – For I know that for me this will turn out to salvation through your petition and the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ
We were discharged from the hospital last night (Sunday) around 6:30 pm. We are home now! ☺ As mentioned previously, the doctors had been monitoring the following 3 things before we could be discharged: Eating ANC (neutrophil count- immunity) No bacterial growth in blood culture or recurring fever Regarding his eating… Adam was taken off […]
Adam’s eating has recently declined and he has not been eating well the last 3 days. Less than 15 ounces a day. Yesterday, Adam had a CT scan scheduled in the morning. He was required to fast since 5:00 am until the scan was complete, so he had not eaten anything all morning. But after […]
After every chemo cycle, Adam will undergo a series of blood draws every 3 days so the doctors can determine whether he needs any transfusions, depending on his blood cell counts. The blood draws will continue until his cell counts recover from the chemo treatment. At that point, he would likely be ready to begin […]
Since Adam’s second chemo treatment on Tuesday, he’s been doing pretty well at home. He has not spiked a fever yet (thank you Lord ?), and he still remains happy and energetic when he’s awake. Contrary to his first chemo treatment, we have not had to give him any anti-nausea medication, and he has not […]
Adam completed his second cycle of chemo treatment yesterday (Tuesday). This was done as an outpatient at the Infusion Center here at CHLA. We will soon come to know this place really well. It was a very long day, that started at 9:00 am and finished by 6:00 pm. His chemo treatment was followed by […]
Helllloooo, sorry that we sort of disappeared for a few days! But I know many people are probably wondering what our time at home has been like. So. It’s now been 6 days at home and so far we are surviving! Being at home with Adam has been easier and better than I anticipated it […]
As of this last week, Adam’s eye appeared to be dilating, responding to light, and moving from side to side. Even physically his eye looks so good and seemingly back to normal. So, we were hopeful that maybe there had been some improvement to his left eye. We had a follow up appointment with the […]
Good morning. Yesterday and today have been so hectic, thus the late post. But, we have some new updates for you. As you all know, Adam had his biopsy procedure yesterday morning at 9:30 am. The procedure was done within an hour and Adam did great. There were no complications, and the surgeon (along with […]
Please also pray that Adam’s blood pressure goes down and stays normal. His BP has been very high for the last few days, and though he is on continuous medication for his blood pressure, it still spikes occasionally. The doctors are still trying to understand what is causing his elevated BPs, but it’s likely just […]
Here’s an adorable little video of dad and Adam having a nice chat together ? (They have a special bond). Also, for those who tried subscribing to our website a couple weeks ago, we understand there were some technical difficulties but they have since been fixed. The subscribe function should now be working. Please let us […]
