Little update

Well, we are still home! No fever yet! This is the first time Ashton has gone this long after chemo without getting sick with an infection!! I'm hoping we get to all stay home this time around...he is doing so well. We did spend the day at the hospital today because he needed a platelet transfusion. We also spent all day Friday there too for red blood cells and platelets. He loses those platelets so fast! But the important thing is no fever.

There is also good news about his hearing. He had another hearing test today which showed his hearing is stable. Actually his hearing was a bit better in the right ear. This was most likely due to ear wax that was removed. He will have another test closer to the next chemo to determine if he will have more Cisplatin. So today was a good day. He continues to grow stronger each day and continues to amaze us with the progress he is making.
