Archie was very much himself today
by Anne Moore
07/1/2005

Archie was very much himself today, smiling and laughing and playing games with us. He still won’t allow many people to hold or touch him, and he starts to cry every time someone new comes into his room, but Archie’s entitled to display a little stranger anxiety after enduring this ordeal.

The results of the bone biopsy confirmed the findings of the bone marrow aspiration. This is good news. Archie’s blood counts from this morning are still headed in the right direction. We are so thankful.

I can also happily report that Archie’s coming home tomorrow. Horray! I can’t wait to get him in a bathtub. He hasn’t had a bath in over a week and his feet truly do stink when we play our regular game where Archie puts his feet in my face, I smell them and then exclaim, “Oh, Archie! You’re feet are poo-stinky!”
