No Tylenol for 12 hours and the temperature is below 100 now. Blood culture is negative for almost 3 days. Hopefully, this is the end of this episode. Blood infection is the worst situation that any leukemia child want to avoid. We met a very cute girl in clinic about one month ago. Her bacterial infection story scared us to death when we firstly learned that Lucas's blood culture showed positive.
We keep asking our doctors what we can do to prevent this happening. Unfortunately, common bacterial on everybody's skin could post great danger to Lucas, whose ANC number was 0 yesterday. Basically , it means that he has absolutely NO self defense system against any kind of bacterial right now.
Fingers crossed. 你们自己也注意身体。
