Do you remember Turner? Here's a update from his mom.?

Question

Hello friends and family,

Good news! Turner made it through his first round of treatment without having to go to the hospital. He is neutropenic, but his counts are now going up, he never got a fever. But his scar where his stitches are is leaking spinal fluid again. It has been restitched, it leaked again and was glued with surgical glue, it is leaking again. So they have put him in the hospital until his counts get high enough that they can surgicaly fix the problem. They think he is not reabsorbing all his spinal fluid, you make over a liter of spinal a day and the old is reabsorbed. So we had a CAT scan today to see if that is the problem(spinal fluid pressure from buildup). So, we are waiting at the hospital until his counts are high enough to do something corrective. He is finally starting to eat again, not a lot, but he is a least keeping it down. So we have about two weeks to put some weight on him before he starts all over. Let's pray for hearty eating and strenght! Thanks for your love and prayers!

Love,

Melaina
