Day 720

I forgot to add his ANC in the top right screenshot - it was 2.5.

Day 720 of Jaxon's recovery from Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Almost 2 years into this ordeal, I'm still surprised to learn that some people think he's all done and finished his treatments. Not so! He continues with a cocktail of daily, weekly, monthly and every-three-months chemo administrations (oral, IV, spinal) as well as steroids for 5 days each month (plus several days of steroid hang-over). Every month his blood counts are checked to make sure the ALL remains in remission, and to make sure he is receiving the right dosages of chemo. This month his white blood count is a bit higher than preferred, but we suspect that is because he has some symptoms of a viral illness. If he has no cold symptoms and high counts again next month, his chemo dose will likely increase. If all continues to go according to plan, the anticipated end of treatment is mid-June 2017.
