It has been a quiet few weeks in Nash-land. So quiet, that sometimes I forget about this big scare we had just a few weeks ago; other times, I am aware but it seems like it was a long, long time ago.
After my last post, Nash went to see a pediatric dermatologist. She gave us some topical medication for Nash's skin rashes, which cleared them up pretty quickly except for the skin behind his ears. That area tested positive for strep, so Nash took an antibiotic for a few days, which did the trick. We don't really know if these rashes were LCH or not (I think they were not), but I don't think that it matters very much either way.
We've had a few weeks since then of normal baby routine, without any doctor's appointments. Yesterday, Chelsi took Nash to the oncologist for bloodwork, and the results, again, were very good. The next appointment for bloodwork will be in about a month. In the meantime, I probably won't be posting very much. I'll try to put up some pictures in a few days, but otherwise the blog will probably be dormant until the next appointment.
We're thrilled. I'm pretty tired right now, so my joy may not be terribly evident. But we are really, really glad that we keep receiving good news about Nash. Thanks again for checking in on us.
