Awesomeness...

I'm happy to report that Tim's blood counts were high enough on Friday that he did not need a blood transfusion! We go in Tuesday for what will possibly be his first. The shot that they gave him to make the blood counts go up more quickly is still causing some flu-like symptoms and he has a bit of a cold on top of that, so he's not exactly comfortable right now. However, he is in elevated spirits because of the high counts and he should be able to kick the cold pretty normally. Right now it's just tons of rest and vitamin C for him. We are at his parents' house this weekend and are going to have dinner tonight with family and our friend Josh. I think he rests best here; in fact, he's napping as I type...perfect opportunity to squeeze in some homework!
