Congratulations FOR Pacers (Dale's basketball team) for winning Megalopolis Championship. We were thinking about you guys during game time. Congratulations FOR Knights ( Derek's team) for a job well done too. Those trophies were very nice except Danny accidentally dropped Derek's trophy and it broke. Dale's lab results were about the same today. The platelets after the transfusion were 95,000. The wbc was exactly the same but the ANC went down again to 460. I hope and pray it goes back up soon. (Our goal is an ANC of 1000 x 3 days) The cyclosporine was changed to every 12 hours instead of a continuous infusion. If the drug levels remain stable, the cyclosporine will be changed to pill form. So what this really means is Dale will only be tied to the i.v. pole for 4 hours twice a day instead of all day. From 2pm to 10 pm, Dale will be free to roam around the room. The evening dose will infuse from 10 pm to 2 am. No school work today. He built another lego and watched NCAA basketball. He had a hard time falling asleep tonight because of the time change. I saw him praying under his blanket and he eventually fell asleep. Thank you for your continued support and prayers.

hi dale,
how did i miss leaving a comment yesterday?
cpr? hmm... would you be willing to do cpr on a girl? how's about a dog? i'm not kidding! our local humane society had a class on what to do when an animal has a accident. i didn't go to the class because i already know what to do....drive to the vet (and really fast)! tobie surprises us with a kiss every now and then and his tongue somehow goes into our mouths...so i'll give him cpr if i have to!
glad to hear that you may not have to be "hooked up" for the whole day soon... you are truly amazing! i can't believe how well you're doing... i believe everyone's prayers are being answered because you are someone special!
take care, it's been a long day with "grandpa tets" today. he didn't do anything to surprise me. i know he said something funny and i told myself i was going to tell you, but...i'm so tired that i can't remember what it was!
till tomorrow....love you LOTS!
aloha,

Hi Dale,
My goodness you are doing so well. You are one tough kid!!! Keep up the good work. Eat, rest, exercise, pray and be mindful of how wonderful and good your doctors, friends and family are to helping you get well too.
Thank you so much Juliann for keeping us up to date with all of the information you've fed to us through the updates. When we get the information first hand, it helps us that are so many miles away.
Congratulation for your team and Derek's team as well. We've watched you guys play and it's terrific so see you guys hussle.
Hey Dale, I made a mistake about Uncle Mitch being Kristen's dad -- Uncle Mitchell is Kristens, Kyle, Jordan and Jessi's uncle too. He's very good with the rubik's cube.
So long for now, our prayers for all of you. Love, popo and gung gung
