Tuesday, March 20th, 2012

Well, I know it's been a while since I kept everyone updated but mommy promised me this time that she will help me write. It's been a very exhausting life so far but finally I get to start taking it a bit easier. My counts have been holding thier own and to date my lymphocyte count is 1100. Dr Issekutz said he wants them to be atleast 1500 so I am slowly getting there. We are going to be doing another test next month to see how many of Gabby's cells I have. Right now it's only 64% but the Dr's said the other 36% of my own cells are still working a little bit on thier own because the good cells are cleaning up my bad cells so they aren't as toxic to me as they used to be. I'm really on the move now too! I like to climb all over mommy and daddy but I haven't mastered it on the floor yet. The ladies who see me at the hospital and make me exercise said I'm doing well. I'm a little behind still but they aren't worried. Other ladies see me about my eating and drinking too but I'm not so good with that. Mommy and daddy have to put a tube down my nose into my belly to give me some milk. I hate drinking and eating and I hate the tube too. Sometimes I pull it out because it gets in the way hehe. Mom and dad don't like that though because then they have to put it back in which isn't fun for eveyone. Also, I only have to go to the hospital to see the Dr. every two weeks now which means they don't take as much red stuff from me. But the best new development of all is that I can go OUTSIDE FOR WALKS (in my bubble of course)! Me and mommy go everyday and I get to see all kinds of new things. There are lots of people around and I can see thier faces, it's so exciting. Someday I'll be able to go out without my bubble and maybe even have a party with all my family and friends. YaY!!!!!
