I just got an email from Gavin’s doctors office in regards to his labs from yesterday. The results from yesterday have his Absolute Neutrophil count back up to 3.0. The number is still on the lower end of things but it’s significantly better than it was yesterday. What worries me is the why. Why are …

It’s been an unexpectedly good morning. The boys got off to school without any issue and I’m now waiting for Gavin to have his labs drawn. The only other thing this morning is an appointment for Lizze. Today, I’m going to be focusing on making sure Gavin’s Clozapine gets refilled tomorrow. I’m also going to …

We have a huge doctor appointment today. Actually, Gavin has a huge doctor appointment today. The bottom line is that’s it’s a huge appointment. We are finally getting into hematology, after trying for what seems like forever but in reality, it was about a year or so. This is a big deal because it’s really …

The boys were supposed to have their ADHD medication check this morning. They were also supposed to be at the dentist yesterday as well. We’ve rescheduled both because they’ve missed so much school recently due to illness, we don’t want them missing anymore unless it’s absolutely necessary. Both appointments are rescheduled for after school hours …

Gavin’s feeling better this morning and the boys got off to school without much trouble. Lizze is having a rough morning because she had a really difficult day yesterday and didn’t sleep well last night. I’m pleased to say she’s currently napping on the couch for a little while. I hate the idea of waking …

I was able to get a hold of Gavin’s psychiatrist’s office this afternoon and got the lab results from his blood draw on Monday morning. I actually only got his Absolute Neutrophil count but that’s a good chunk of information. His Absolute Neutrophil count has climbed up a couple points from 2.0 to 2.4. This …

I received a call today from Gavin’s doctor. When I saw who it was, my stomach knotted up and my heart sank. They never call unless it’s bad news. I was right. Apparently, Gavin’s numbers are crashing again. I’m currently waiting for him to come out from having his labs drawn for the second time …
