Jackson had a good day today playing with friends from church!  His counts are all steadily going up.  His platelet count is up to 400,000 (normal is between 150,000 and 400,000), his Hemoglobin is at 9.2( normal is between10.5-13.5), and his white blood cells are at 2.66 (normal is between 6.0-17.0).  We are hoping that his counts will come up enough that he can come home this week.  Jackson also had a dressing change by mommy and daddy today.  Jackson is doing better at sitting up in his bumbo seat and he is still eating very well.
