Shenanigans and Healing

As I'm sure you can tell from the photos Logan is feeling good.  We have an appointment on Tuesday to meet with the bone marrow team to hear the specifics of his transplant.  In the mean time, he is continuing to heal.   His last blood test showed that his bone marrow is indeed working and churning out some new, cancer free blood.  He needs a ANC (absolute neutrophil count) of at least 200 before they will release him from the hospital.  Eric and I expect him to hit that goal sometime next week.  Just for reference, a healthy individual has an ANC of 1500 to 8000 so he will still be immunocompromised when we get to go home so he will have to continue to steer clear of germs.
