Strawberry Shortcake

Things have been pretty quiet this week, which is a good thing. Carly has days when she is pretty awake for many hours and some days when she sleeps most of the day, but the trend is heading in the right direction.  She is also smiling more and is very attentive to sounds often smiling for some sound off in the distance that Christa and I wouldn’t have even noticed otherwise. Her hematology check this week was very good, showing a healthy amount of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The Hemotology-Oncology resident said that it looks like Carly is out of the woods for this issue, and she won’t need her blood levels tested again for another month.

Love, Brad
