Staying a Little Longer

Levi’s stay in the hospital will be a little longer than hoped.  He needed blood transfusions again yesterday.   And then, we knew something must be going on when all of the usual tactics to make him smile resulted in Mr. Grumpy Pants.  Late in the day he started spiking fevers and will need IV antibiotics to fight off infections as his immune system is low once again from treatment.  He also has another side effect from his treatment called mucositis which can cause a lot of pain.  

Despite it all, he continues to work hard with his physical therapy...knocking down towers, playing with his Blaze trucks, and impressing everyone with how stinking smart he is.   His right hand/arm is the hardest for him, but he’s starting to include it more and more!   Just a few more days little man...keep being Amazing!!!
