Psalm 116:1 I love the lord because he hears and answers my prayers. This verse was given to Shawn by his sister & it is so fitting for Tuckers journey.
Last night was another sleepless night for mommy.Tucker once again wanted to be held all night, so that is exactly what he got. He heals when he sleeps! Mommy can sleep later. We had a good day today, and got some good news. Im just learning all this but i am going to try & explain this. So a white blood cell has 3 parts to it, lymphocites, monocytes & nuetrafils. Before the transplant Tuckers white blood cells , the few that he had were empty. So yesterday they told us he now has 2 nuetrafils that they can see, & we were very excited. This morning when the doctors came in they said not only does he have the nuetrafils but they also now see monocytes!! The transplant is working & Tuckers little body is doing its thing & starting to produce cells!!! We dont have a true count yet or any actual white blood cells yet, however they didnt expect to see anything at all till the end of next week. We have the most amazing baby ever!! After last week this was the most amazing news. We still have a ways to go , but we now know that things are happening and the sleepless nights just dont seem to matter. Every day as I sit here with Tucker it amazes me what his little body has to endure & he still wakes up & smiles at me. I am comforted in the fact that he wont remember all the pain is going thru just to be able to live.I know that God has big plans for our "Little Man"!!!!
I get to go home tomorrow for the weekend, till Monday , so I can be home for JT & Keighlys first day of school. I cant wait to sleep in my own bed, or just sleep for that matter. Tucker will be in good hands here with his daddy. I miss my other kids & i am excited to spend the weekend with them.
Please keep praying for Tucker!!!
