TREVS HEALTH




Our little Trev has many outpatient doctor appointments to come. As you all know our son has not been producing Red Blood Cells on his own. The donor transfused RBC's will live for 3 weeks and then they will die, which means that Trev has about 10 days left of donor cells to sustain him. As I posted earlier,Trev did receive the IGIV transfusion with is immunoglobulin therapy that should boost his immune system to help him to produce RBCs. We do not know what his outcome will be, we meet with the Hematologist on Thursday the 19th for further analysis and testing of his RBC's and RETIC count. We are hoping that after Trev received the IGIV therapy that his body kicked in and he began the process of producing RBC's. He may very well need another blood transfusion(s) in the near future, but time will tell. We do know that we are in good hands with Dr. Yahish at Primary's and we will keep you posted on Trevs lab results. Trev also has one eye that is about 98% developed and must be followed up on due to his ROP condition. The outcome of his eye situation is very promising and we are not worried, his other eye is cleared 100%. His eye exam is also on Thursday the 19th and they should be able to give us the immediate results. Please keep our little Trev in your prayers, Thursday is a big day for him, as are the days to come.
