The 5th Round Recovery

We've now been in the hospital this round for almost three weeks. Hunter has officially finished his chemo and has crashed at his zero mark. He had 104 fevers for about 4 days and they ended at the perfect time. Since they have not continued over the weekend, that means we don't have to do another Cat Scan. Woo HOO!!! Less radiation for our kid! The other good news is that his pic-line is NOT infected, which is another thing that could have been causing the fevers. They would have had to remove it and then stick him with a needle every time to draw blood, which is about 6-10 times a week. He is continuing his antibiotic routine with two big bacteria fighters and they've also placed him on an anti-fungal. He'll continue these for possibly the next seven days. The doctor came in today and said plan on about two more weeks at the hospital. Almost done!!!!

Hunter getting iced down at 104 degrees. The ice packs are under the towels. He doesn't seem to mind when he's an inferno.





Love to all XoXo
