Good News on Baylor April 7, 2009

Baylor had a Dr. appointment on April 7 with a new hematologist who is a transplant specialist. We got transferred to this new dr because his bone marrow test from January show that his bone marrow production fell to the lowest category. They wanted us to start getting things lined up in case his bone marrow failed and he needed a bone marrow transplant.
The new Dr is wonderful. She checked all of Baylor's blood counts and said everything looks great. She said she didn't feel like he was at any major risks right now, and we don't have to see her for another 6 months, which was great news. But even better, she contacted Viacord for us and they are banking the new baby's cord blood for free since Baylor has a medical necessity for it. So the new baby's cord blood will hopefully provide all we need for a bone marrow transplant if Baylor were to ever need that. Good things have been all around us lately. I don't think we could be more blessed right now!
