highs and lows

Today Nick and I went in to see his oncologist. Unfortunately Dr. Dosik hurt his back this week so his second-in-command met with us instead. The doctor just checked in with Nick to make sure he was doing ok and that the chemo wasn't doing too much damage to him. His white blood cell count was up, thanks to all the shots he has been getting. The only bad news is that his platelet count was extremely low. If it doesn't climb back up before Thursday Nick won't be able to have his treatment. The worst part about this is there isn't a shot like there is for the white blood cells, so we just have to cross our fingers and hope for the best.

Thanks for all the prayers and thoughts.
Love,
Cera
