We had our appointment today, and Gabey's counts are the lowest they've ever been. He didn't need any transfusions, but his ANC count is only 150. That was scary to hear. I can only thank the Lord that He's protecting Gabey. He's feeling fine, and doing well otherwise.
We're going to be really careful the next week, and limit visiters. The doctor said not to be surprised if we end up in the hospital for a fever. But, the Lord has kept Gabey from fevers so powerfully, I have faith that He can keep him well this week too.
It's, prayerfully, the last week we have to really worry about counts like this.

Prayer Requests
We've started Maintenance. It will be ongoing for the rest of the 3 years of his treatment.
It's much more laid back, and Gabey will be able to get back to living a much more normal life.
The doctors said for us to just go ahead and start going out, and doing the things we need to do. Gabey will start Sunday school again, and we'll be starting going to the store and restaurants again. They said that we can't really worry too much about his counts because we won't know what they are except once a month.
We need to keep praying for his counts to be consistantly above 1000, the nurse said that was their goal for him, so they would be adjusting his doses to keep his counts in a good range.
We still need to pray against fevers and infections, so Gabey can stay away from the hospital.

A Huge Thank You!
I would love to make a list of our friends and family who have given so much already, but I wouldn't want to rob anyone of a blessing.
So, I will just say a big thank you to all of you who have given gifts, and supplies, and money.
You are all angels, and I can't thank you enough for helping us in this valley.
