Neutrophils down

Michael had labs today.  The last time was Thursday and the Neutrophils were hit really hard.  We didn't expect they would drop that much today.  But, the nurse was not.  They went from 5700 to 350.  But, hopefully the Neulasta shot will be kicking in soon.  Earlier today he was out without a mask, but now he has to wear one when he is out to protect him from infection.  The Lymphocytes are showing a slight increase which is good.  Michael has been feeling good and has been on his laptop and keyboard most of the evening.  Thank you so much for your prayers and we thank you so much for those who are praying special prayers for the chemo to blast the tumor away, for his heart to be protected and for the Neutrophils and Lymphocytes to bounce back quickly and to stay strong.  Thank you!!
