Chemo Postponed

Luke's ANC count was down to 400. He is pretty much house bound for now. We have to watch him close for any signs of fever of 100.5 or above. His ANC has to be at least 550 to start chemo, so we were sent home to wait. They assume his ANC needs a little more recovery time so they scheduled his chemo for next Tuesday April 7th. I guess this is a fairly common occurrence but a little scary for us since he is so vulnerable to infection. Please pray his counts will rise quickly. He is still feeling fine, despite having so few white blood cells... Praise God !
