Last of the Nelarabine

Aidan had Nelarabine for the whole week, he was so happy to be de-accessed on friday. 
Aidan has some video on his IPAD i am still waiting for them.  Everything went relatively well.  Previously when he got this chemo his counts went down so on the following tuesday he went for blood work at our nearbyBiomed clinic.  Karen, Aidan's nurse called the next day to say that his plateletes were down so his chemo for the week was held and that we would wait another week and repeat the blood work. 
It is the week after and we went to the hospital for blood work this week.  Counts are GREAT!  The best they have ever been since the start of all of this.
White blood 4.4
Hemoglobin  114
Platelets  1.25
Neurtraphils 340

Since his counts did go down, Aidans oral chemo is at half of a half of a half tablet for both his metholtrexate and his 6mp.

His next in clinic appt is July 3 for blood work and Vincristine and the dreaded PREDISONE!
