Jon was released from the hospital today! YEA!! He will go back to being an outpatient until they can get some of the side effects under control. He will report to the BMT (Bone Marrow Transplant) Clinic Saturday, Sunday and Monday in the very least. But they have taken him off all his antibiotics. He is still low on potassium and magnesium which he is taking through pills. The clinic will basically just be giving him fluids. The doctor is very concerned with his kidneys since he is loosing so much fluid. For those of you who are medical or have been through a stem cell transplant you will enjoy seeing this. For those of you who are not, basically this week on the calendar shows his counts coming up...a huge cause for celebration when you work with BMT patients. PTL!
We were able to go to the apple orchard with the kids today. Jon's dad brought Jon home from the hospital while we were gone. It was about 30 minutes away and SO fun. I have wanted to do this since the twins have been born and we have no apple orchard near us that I know of. I had a blast and the kids did also! It was a beautiful day! Here are some precious pictures of our time at the orchard picking apples!
The Strebe's are...
GODSTRONG!
