Steve was released from the hospital today and got home about 2:30 pm. He and Mindi are both glad to be home and are looking forward to some rest and good sleep. Steve will be seeing his doctor daily now and will have his second lumbar puncture treatment on Friday. After Friday and further tests, we should know what the future treatments will be.
Steve is exhausted and has asked that no one come to visit for the next week or so until he is feeling better. For the next 4 to five days, Steve will be feeling the worst from treatments so far. He is also still in a neutropenic state (which means susceptible to viruses and bacteria). If he gets sick and his temperature exceeds 100 degrees, he will have to go back to the hospital.
Steve and Mindi both appreciate all of your love and support through this trying time. Please keep in mind that they both need some rest. Before you visit, call to see if they are ready for visitors (or write a comment on this blog) for the next week.
Thank you
Sister Sue
