John is still waiting for his white blood cell count to rise. Although it has gone up a little, it hasn't gone up enough to be sent home. He is still weak, and food doesn't sound good to him. It doesn't help that he can't eat fresh food which is what he likes. For the past few days, this has been the challenge. Any of you who have ever been on a strict diet, you know what it is like to comply. With each passing day, it gets harder and harder. And when he feels nauseous it's even more difficult! Enough said.
I hope I have good news tomorrow. We'd like to have John home for Valentines Day.

Tobi and John -- Tamera said it all for us. I have been thinking about you so much. I will be so happy when you are home. I know even when you get home, we will need to be very careful. I may not get to actually see John for awhile because Sophie and Drew are catching a bug here and there. Grammy's have to be with their grandkids -- for us/me it is worth every bug they pass my way. I know it is different for you.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if there is anything I can do to make life easier --
Love Tausha
Even if you don't make it home for Valentine's Day, you guys have the key element of the day with you-- each other. But I hope you get to go home today!
ReplyDeleteTobi and John,
ReplyDeleteOur whole family is thinking of you and glad to hear that John is home and gaining strength each day. We wish your whole family the best and hope that John is gaining the energy to educate 5th grade band students. They need him! All the best.
Kim and John
