No Need for Transfusions, Again. CBC: 12/28/06

Max's counts keep going up. His platelets were at 47 yesterday, which is a huge increase. We are thrilled. We had suspected they had gone up because he doesn't seem to be bruising much, but didn't expect such a large jump. His hematocrit was up slightly, too, so he didn't need to go in for red cells. It is still low, but Max still has some color in his cheeks and an fair amount of energy, so it isn't too bad. His ANC was down a bit, but still over 500. We are so happy.
