Part 2 - no news yet

Well, unfortunately, part 2 doesn't have much new news. His hemoglobin numbers continue to be low; the 5pm reading was at 9.9. I guess normal ranges are usually between 12- 15. We did not hear anything about the cultured infections or the MRI results. So, we continue to play the waiting game.

Les did wake up a little late afternoon and ate some grapes, a chocolate chip cookie and some Ensure. He seems clearer than the last few days, so we are happy about that. The cheek has not gone down in size or lost its redness like we had hoped. Thanks for checking...

  1. Dear Blobaum Family: I wish there was something we could do to make your journey easier. Please know that you are in my daily thoughts and prayers, Stir-Up Days and the Kiddie Parade will be sorely lacking without your presences. Hugs and kisses and many well wishes - I will come back on Sunday and give you the lowdown on Stir Up.
