My daughter, Haylee Kate, was diagnosed with APML Leukemia, which is a rare form, on November 21, 2011 at 8 years old. I thought this would be a good way for me to get my thoughts and feelings out and to let others know about her ups and downs throughout her treatment.

6/23-6/24/12 - Weekend #3 (and hopefully the last)

Saturday

The therapy dogs came to visit today.  Haylee liked Loki, the black Pomeranian.  She said he was cuter than Nonna and PawPaw's Sadee Jane...hard to believe! 


Haylee and Loki


Looks like Beethoven!
They weren't really too busy and nothing else was going on.  Today's counts were promising...if they stay up, she could go home by Monday or Tuesday!

WBC - 2320
HGB - 12.2
Platelets - 26k
ANC - 20
SEGs - 1
Lymphocytes - 99


Sunday

There was a carnival downstairs in the classrooms hosted by One Heart One Love Foundation with carnival games and arts and crafts for the kids to do.  They got tickets and were able to exchange them for prizes.  They could play the games as many times as they wanted and get as many tickets as they wanted.  Adam, Mason, and I got there just in time to be able to go down with Haylee and Nonna.  The kids had a good time :)
Counts went back down.  No chance of going home before mid-week at the absolute earliest (and that's if counts start coming in by Monday). 

WBC - 2480
HGB - 12.7
Platelets - 15k
ANC - 0
SEGs - 0
Lymphocytes - 100 :(
