Ethan stayed in the hospital last night; his white blood count was almost unmeasurable, but his fever stayed pretty stable. He started antibiotics last night.  

They will keep him at least  48 hours or until his blood count starts coming up. Apparently this happens a lot with this type of chemo which he will now be getting every month.

Continue to pray that Ethan's blood count comes up so that he can be discharged asap. 

Praise - Ethan's surgeon said that if necessary he would do a HOME VISIT for Ethan so he can get his follow-up appointment in before his next admission.  Thank God for this surgeon whose care and concern is a blessing for Ethan and the Blackbirds!

Praise - Thankfully Ethan's chest x-ray was normal!
