He scores a 10!

We went to clinic today for counts and a transfusion. It went well with an easy finger prick and a lot of waiting. Then the nurse came and told me he didn't need blood. CAN YOU SAY THAT AGAIN PLEASE?????? He didn't need blood because his hemoglobin was 10.1! WOO HOO James Thomas. Mommy is so proud of your little body. His counts are still dropping but they are dropping at a slower rate. This is wonderful news because it means we can wait one more week before we get blood. James and I are so happy James Thomas' body is able to hold on to the blood a little longer than before. He has never made it three weeks without needing blood so this is a new milestone. All the other parents said we should go celebrate and get ice-cream. Maybe mom will have to eat some for you tonight!!!!
