as expected...

Well the weekend events were no surprise to us... we ended up back in the hospital, room 839. The very same room we just left. It worked out though since the 5 ft. Ginger bread man we created still hung on the door with that weird grin on his face like he knew we would be back.

Kev spiked a fever on Friday night that caused us to pack up our comfortable hotel room and head to the ER. We called ahead and they put us in the "fastrack" so we had our room back and were sleeping by 2:30 in the a.m., which is good compared to last time. Kev had another fever last night and one again tonight. He has already received blood and platelets, so the numbers are up from the last go around. He is still very low in all his counts, but fevers equal hospital stays. By the looks of things, Santa will be visiting the Seely's at the GMC. It may sound bad, but Kev is actually doing quite well. He fights the occasional nausea and fever, but otherwise feels fine. Time will tell, once his whites are up the fevers, pain, and nausea should stop.

On a side note Dad is feeling better and will be rejoining the family tomorrow after work. No complaints just positive thoughts. Soon starts the final rehab stage, it will be nice to get away from the food channel for a bit.

Miss & Love Ya

Hey Kevin,
