Gavin's labs have finally come in and it's better than bad news. His Absolute Neutrophil is up to 2.8 from 2.4 last week. This is good news because the numbers are moving in the right direction. At the same time, we still have no idea what's going on. We're still waiting to get into Hematology because this is the best chance we have to identify what's going on and how we can address it. I feel a sense of relief at he moment because his members are good right now and will probably be good for the next couple of days. I can't let my guard down because we have learned over time, that with Gavin, what goes up must come down. It's like we're waiting for the proverbial other…

I waited all day and the lab results never came in. I spoke with the doctors office a few times and they have assured me that they will email me the results as soon as they get them. Being the overprotective, borderline paranoid parent I am, I continued to follow-up until they closed. Unfortunately, that didn't get me anywhere but frustrated. I know in my head that waiting until tomorrow isn't the end of the world but when Gavin goes to bed not doing well, it's like pouring gasoline on my worry fire. I'll be following up in the morning and hopefully find some answers. I'm pretty fucking stressed out but I'm managing.. ☺

All I can say is so far so good. Gavin's bloodwork is done and we're just waiting on the results. He got to spend time with his grandparents, which is awesome for all involved. I was able to get some work done, as evidenced by having written a few times already today. ☺ I'm working on the house and on the site today. As soon as Gavin got home, we setup his IVIG infusion and it's going good. He seems like he's in a better place today and I'm happy to see this. All I have left today is picking the kids up from school and getting Elliott to occupational therapy. I'm hoping to grab some sweet pictures of Elliott's session today and I'll share them later on. I have…

The wait for Gavin to have is bloodwork done about one hour and fifteen minutes. At about the one hour mark, Lizze parents showed up and took over waiting. They had texted me about hanging out with Gavin this morning and wanted to come pick him up from the lab. I was able to head home and they were able to spend some time with Gavin. That's a win win in my book. Now we simply have to wait for the results of his labs. This is the part I'm dreading. As many of you know, I hate when the only thing left to do is hurry up and wait.
