In are the results from today.................

Platelet count is rising but just under the limit so we go another week without the TMZ. However, Dr Crocker told Joe that his body is obviously sensitive to the drug and so that's a good thing according to Dr Crocker per Joe. Dr Voloschin who is in charge of administering the drug is the one we should direct our questions to according to Dr Crocker. I will contact Dr Voloschin tomorrow. I'm not sure I understand how that is a good thing but maybe it is. Will find out with Dr V. Joe's incision is looking better actually since he shaved his head. Dr Crocker decreased the steroid some more. Joe loves that! Dr Crocker did give Joe a prescription for Thrush which we were warned that it is a side effect.

Joe loved having Steve & Pam as his caregivers today. He had not seen them in awhile so it was all good.

Steve, Joe was telling me how nice the new truck is............niceeeeeeeeeee! I'm holding you & Pam to a dinner invitation out to the Thai Palace real soon! Love you two & thank you!

Now for tomorrow...............Joe's GBI buddy, Mike will be his caregiver. This could be trouble with the two of them together! Mike's nickname is "Whiskey" need I say anymore..........

    Now something tells me "Whiskey" and I would get along perty darn good : ) Could you see us all sitting around the campfire at your house Papa Joe? Snappy would have to stay away from the concrete wall. I sure am glad to know the locals are taking very good care of you . . . I can't imagine your "male" nurses giving you extended hugs and kisses like we do though . . . right Lisa Jan?

    That staff is some pretty bad crap . . . so let's hope you keep it at bay. I miss you all after that great party we had last Saturday. Keep up the great progress reports you two. We love hearing from you. If you need anything, night or day, we are just a phone call away. This Saturday is Paisley's (Grand Baby) One Year Old Birthday Party at Grandma and Papa Byrne's house. We'll post pictures on Shutterfly for all to see.

    Have a good Friday and even better weekend.
    Love you two : )
