Well, the results are that he has "stuff", infiltrates (small) in both lungs, not just the left upper lobe like 2 weeks ago. So, he isn't running a fever, he is playing, eating and acting wonderfully, but, the Dr called and said that after reviewing this with the lung doctor, it has been decided that he won't start chemo on Monday but with have a bronchoscopy so they can find out what exactly this "stuff" is in his lungs and treat it. So, they have to deal with that first and then he can start the 2nd round of chemo. We still go Monday to be admitted and will actually end up staying longer because of the lung thing. So, 5-6 weeks probably this round as long as nothing else occurs.
So, prayer requests for Monday, that the bronchoscopy is uneventful and what they find is nothing serious and can be easily treated so we can go on with the chemo.
His labs from yesterday were awesome! His ANC is over 1500 (his immune system). When we left last Friday it was 740. The Dr states his ANC is above average and that's great. All the other labs were great. His hemoglobin and platelets are normal. So, his bone marrow came back beautifully!
Ok...have to go. Hope you enjoyed the baseball pictures of slugger Zach!
Time for bed
