We're back on our familiar floor - and even in our regular room!
UNC Children's 5C05 - (919)966-4441
Grandma has done her daily run to Target. Grant is napping at the moment. His fever is a little high again this afternoon - 101.9, so he just had more Tylenol. He is scheduled for more antibiotics at 6 pm. Hopefully we will speak to the doctors on evening rounds and try to get some indication of what may be going on. As of right now, we are still thinking that Grant has a cold/virus that has made his counts fall - to put it in the most simple terms. So, thankfully, what we are dealing with are complications from chemotherapy and not complications from leukemia.
I will post more later!

About Grant
Grant was diagnosed with ALL T-Cell Leukemia on April 26, 2007. He had been sick almost all winter, getting several ear infections, colds and coughs, strep throat, stomach bugs, fevers, and general feel-bad-all-overness. When he just could not get better, and earned the nickname "The Hulk" because he was starting to look so green, his Mama knew that something was not right. After another trip to the doctor, a blood test was ordered, and within a few hours he and his family were on their way to UNC Children's Hospital in Chapel Hill, one of the top pediatric oncology centers in the nation. The wonderful doctors there are already making progress, and beating this disease.
Anyone who knows Grant knows that he loves his Super Heroes - Superman, Spiderman, Wolverine, Batman, Power Rangers, and on and on. He doesn't just love them, he loves to become them, often dressing up and acting like the Hero of the Day. I think we can all agree that Grant is going to be our favorite Super Hero, and he is going to prove to everyone just how strong and invincible he is!
