Yesterday was quite a roller coaster kind of day. On Sunday, Hunter's fever had not returned (the longest he had gone without a fever in 5 weeks), so there was talk of sending him home if the Monday morning labs and biopsy results checked out. However, his fever returned yesterday. It was a low grade fever, but the pathology report came back non specific, and his white count is still high. The Dr. that will continue to follow the case had a couple of ideas and wanted to run more labs, so they said he would have to stay in the hospital. Hunter's poor veins! THEN.., around 4:30, they decided to send Hunter home, and any further treatment will be outpatient unless he gets worse again.
SHEESH!
Jessica and I pulled together some dinner, hung some balloons, and our wonderful neighbor, Rochelle, helped with a Welcome Home sign on the garage.
Hunter and Tiffany were pretty tired, and a little overwhelmed with everything, but were happy to finally be home. Hunter will continue go in for labs and checkups until we can get him better. We feel incredibly blessed that Hunter came home without having to deal with a cancer diagnosis.
Our focus today is to prepare for Tiffany's surgery tomorrow. Please continue to pray for her, and that the surgery will go as well as possible in the morning. Thank you to everyone who has helped us so far!
