Caring

Trenton's platelet count is at 77,000. So, it seems as there has been no change since December. But I know better. Last month I was a little worried about him because of a few signs that we're used to seeing. But today it's the same count. My best guess is was a lot lower last month, and it's on it's way up again. But I don't know! That's the most frustrating part! I'm sure I'm just being hormonal and all, but I'm getting sooo sick of this. Well, to be honest, I've been sick of this for a long time, it's just surfacing again.

Tyler thinks I'm insane, but I still get this vibe from our nurse that I'm being paranoid and overprotective. She's got other kids to worry about that are dying and going through chemo and radiation and far worse things that little kids (or anyone for that matter) should have to go through. Trenton's not at that level. I know that and am very thankful for that. But he's still my baby and I want her to know that and not just ignore me. If you say you will call me later to talk about his test results, then do it!! Is that really asking too much?

OK, I think I feel better now. See you in two months when this all happens again.
