Send your kisses

Hi everyone,

Thank you for checking out the blog. Keeping you posted on the "going's on and the what's happening" with Grif. The big question I get asked is, "How is Griffin doing?"

Griffin remains at home, and continues to be on lock down because his immune system is compromised. His blood count continues to remain on the low end of the parameters and therefore he has been on hold from receiving chemotherapy. Griffin's plan of care consists of a bone marrow biopsy on Thursday to definitively determine if the chemotherapy treatments will continue or if he is in relapse. Without saying, Gretchen and Jon remain hopeful and optimistic of the results. Griffin is noted to be in good spirits, but is also stir crazy. The boy is always hungry and continually eating. Talks of locks on cabinets have been verbalized because he is not restricted from eating at certain times. (During intake of chemo meds Griffin was restricted from eating 2 hours before and after eating due to high risk of vomiting of medication).

The next steps will be determined after the results of Thursday's biopsy. Please continue to pray and send positive thoughts Griffin's way.
