Slowly getting better

Logan still has a runny nose, but it seems to be slightly less today than it has been for the past week. Hopefully this means that he is on the mend from this cold. We went into the clinic today for labs to see if he starts Maintenance tomorrow, and...he passed (barely). To go on to the next phase, his ANC needed to be at or above 750, and it was 830. We were sweating it a little because of the cold. Sometimes that keeps his numbers low, but thankfully we had an extra few days because we changed the clinic schedule. We will know more details tomorrow, but we do know that there will be oral chemo every night, an extra oral chemo once a week, and steroids. All that starts tomorrow. Yikes! We are going from meds only on the weekend to several pills each day at least for the first week. It will be up and down, but I think he will do just fine. OK, maybe with a few bribes that will be true. I am definitely not above bribing.

Positive thoughts are welcome since tomorrow at 8 am Logan has a spinal chemo with sedation and he starts the steroids tomorrow. Here is a picture of him clowning around while we tried to watch the Superbowl:
