Today we visited Cole in hospital. We found out he had a fever last night that went away with some Tylenol. So the doctors decided to be super safe and check for Meningitis. So today he just got a spinal tap to check. We'll know more by the end of the day.
Finally some good news - we found out that he does NOT have LCH in his bone marrow. It still may turn out that due to the chemo he'll need to have a bone marrow transplant as the chemo kills off the bone marrow. So we'll just have to wait.
Patience and prayers!
