More Waiting....and some soccer

I figured it has been way too long since I put a picture of our cute boys on here. So here you go. I took this today after Nik & Nate's soccer game. Do we not have the 3 cutest boys ever!!!

Nik & Nate have had so much fun playing soccer this year! They had an amazing coach who made it so much fun for the kids. Their team name is Hot Lava on Fire and they have a really good little team. So far they are undefeated and with only 1 game left I think they'll have a perfect season :) Thanks Coach Fry it's been a blast!

In leukemia news...we are still just waiting for Clints white cell count to come up so we can take him home for a while. They think it could be early this next week. His platelets and red blood counts are up and they said the white count usually follows. He is definitely excited to get a little break from this hospital, that's for sure!
In transplant news...they are in the process of testing his siblings (thanks for being tested guys, we love you). It sounds like the results will take a couple weeks to get back, so right now we are just praying that one of them is a match so we can get started with the transplant process.
From what it sounds like we will probably get to go home for a week or two as soon as his counts come up and then if one of his siblings match we will start getting prepared for the transplant. If they don't match then he will be put on the transplant list and hopefully find a match on the donor registry, but that will probably take a while so we will have to start consolidation chemo in the meantime.

He is feeling really good right now. His rash is almost completely gone and his cough is not bad at all anymore. His hair is starting to fall out. He can pull big chunks out and it is getting pretty thin all over. But he still looks smokin hot!

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. We are so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people!
