Day 38 July 13, 2009

Monday- Today was a quiet day. Cody had an EKG first thing. Some of the medicines can cause a lower heart rate and may need to be adjusted as was his case. He got a good night of sleep. We have the magic potion. I had a long discussion with the neurologist. As a teacher, I see all these behaviors and it freaks me a little. I know his mental state is not the same and I am told it will all come back. Could take weeks and/or months. Each day I see a little improvement. It is difficult to see. I keep thinking of all the parents that deal with these mental issues each day and I feel so awful for them. In some ways, this is harder than the big issue here. His counts are still continuing to come up and we are pleased with it. He continues to need platelets but I am told those come in last. We talked about coming home which is in the near future and we are so looking forward to that.
