Day 32 July 6, 2009

We finally left the Pediatric Observation Unit this afternoon. It was about time. We got settled in and I think Cody feels better. It was good to have my dad here for 'the move'. I was able to get away tonight to have dinner with dad. Cody's uncle Jim came to sit here for an hour. It was nice to get out and to spend some time with my dad. I am still concerned about Cody's mental state and have been working and encouraging him to respond and interact more. It is tough. He is a typical 16 year old but also a stubborn one. I think he is tired of being here too.

The counts are coming in. His ANC is .08 and white blood count is 1.2. Slowly but surely.
