Thursday

The doctors have diagnosed Trent's eye pain as conjunctivitis.
This inflammation was brought on by the chemo treatment.
The eye drops that Trent has been getting is the treatment for this condition and he should be fine.
Trent had his eyes opened several times yesterday, so he is getting better.
Trent is done with chemo on this 5 week program, but the chemo has push his blood counts down.
Trent has had a couple of transfusions of platelets this week and at least one transfusion of whole blood.
The doctors will let Trent go home when his blood count goes back up.
Thanks for all your prayers during Trent's struggles!
