If I had only known - that you, Dad's friends, just needed an explanation of the ANC, I would have explained it weeks ago... because...
(Tuesday, March 16, 2010)
Update from Emily:
Dad is out! Thank you so much for all of your prayers! He has been released from the bone marrow unit wing of the hospital. His ANC numbers went above 500 this morning (WBC: 0.91), and that meant Dad could be moved to the "transitional apartment."
Since none of us were quite expecting the news this morning, the day was spent getting everything packed, moved, bought, and ready for apartment life. As I delivered some things to mom at the apartment tonight, I asked her if they had a "cleaning service" to help keep things sanitary for Dad. Mom and I looked at each other and laughed. "So you are now the maid and the cook - as well as the primary care giver?" I asked smiling.
"Yes... maybe we shouldn't have prayed to leave the hospital so quickly" she replied in jest.
Dad will continue to visit Moffitt everyday for IV fluid, tests, and other procedures.
Thank you again for your prayers! We rejoice in Dad's numbers, and ask for your continued prayers as Mom and Dad adapt to phase two of this process!

I wish we could be there to help with the cleaning, cooking, etc. That will be a huge job for Patra; however, if she can now get some sleep, perhaps she will be up to the task.
We will continue our prayers.
Good going, Bob; Keep those numbers going UP, UP, UP,UP!!!
Love the Buggs,
Lex and Linda
Look forward to that email.God Bless you all. Odette
