| Jay's CSF samples from 12/22/11 |
Jaylon's doctor called this morning to inform us there was one suspicious cell in his cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) from the last lumbar puncture (spinal tap). Back in November 2010 there was a similar cell found right before we were to leave for our Make-A-Wish trip. A subsequent spinal tap and bone marrow was done a few weeks later and revealed everything was clear. Since then a more aggressive protocol was followed for his lumbar punctures.
Because of this history another spinal tap and bone marrow aspiration will be done in the middle of January to ensure there are no other abnormal cells. We are hoping for good results again. Jaylon right now is having a rough time with his decadron(steroids), but overall is doing better.
