Happy Birthday Eric!

Happy 22nd Birthday Eric! Make it a great day! We'll go out for an early dinner tonight and then Eric and Morgan have plans with friends. It's just so great that he is out of the hospital and is feeling well enough to make plans to celebrate! This is what it's all about.

Eric's doing well. He still goes in daily for IV antibiotics and fluid. His counts fluctuate alot and that drives us crazy. As much as we know this is normal, we have been here before. Expecting just a few more days of daily visits. When this course of antibiotics is over, they will likely move him to weekly visits. If he still needs hydration (to flush the drugs through and help keep creatine counts down), he can get that at home.

Today we are celebrating.

UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!

Counts are up today and antibiotics are done! He is discharged from Outpatient BMT and will move to weekly appointments! What a great BDay present!

HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY. You deserve so much happiness (and not going to the hospital all the time will definitely help). Big hugs from LV, Alison (Adrienne's mom)
