Today we were at the hospital from 9:30-3. Cole had good color, was quite alert, and ate well while we were there. We are supplementing the breastmilk with formula to add calories and help him gain weight.
No news back on the Meningitis test yet but he did not have a fever overnight which is good.
We will go back to the hospital in the morning for his chemo treatment. We think they will keep him admitted until early next week to monitor him since the chemo has been hard on his little body and has been requiring him some extra medical attention after it's administered.
On a lighter note, Cole does have one of the best rooms in the hospital as he gets a view of the sunset over the GG bridge every night.

- Cole Jonathan Kambeitz was born October 5th, 2008. He was born with chicken pox-like lesions on his skin. After a CT scan, MRI, x-ray, ultrasound, and a biopsy, he was diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Hystiocytosis (LCH) at 3 days old. It affects his skin, liver and lungs. He completed treatment of 1 year of chemo and steroids and after a liver biopsy in late November '09 confirming no active disease, he is officially in remission. Today he is a very happy boy, excited to explore the world.
