It was a long week but we finally got discharged Thursday evening. Mac got the full experience of side effects and it was tough for a while. Today we had the early appointment in the clinic and ended up spending most of the day there - he got more platelets and that process can take some time if the Medicine Room is busy. But the good news is that hopefully the worst of the serum sickness is behind us, Mac made it through like the champ he is, and we have the weekend off!! Our nurse practitioner encouraged us to relax this weekend and do something fun (in our case it will probably involve Target... can't get more fun than that!!!) Ana & I are coming up with plans to make our room in the Ronald McDonald House the palace we know it can be. (Maybe it will become a new segment on HGTV - how to decorate your home away from home...)

Thanks to everyone for checking in and sending us mail! Please keep up the prayers; that is what we need the most!!
