We did labs at Children's at the end of March and the Hgb was 10 and ANC was stable. The platelets dropped more. So we'll do labs here again in about a week and then we'll go to Memphis after school is out. Martha mentioned doing a bone marrow aspiration during this visit. The last time Mac had one was Dec. 2009 when he was still transfusion dependent. The hope is that the cellularity % is higher than it was then and they don't find any chromosome abnormalities. They are also looking to see if there are more megakaryocytes (platelet makers). So that's the latest prayer request! I always know I can ask and you all get to work!!

Otherwise things are going well. The last nine weeks are flying by, I can't believe school is almost out for the summer. Thanks for checking in and praying, and I'll update again after our Memphis appointment.
