An Oldie, But A Goodie
Here is one of my favorite pics of Naya hanging onto her brother in Central Park in the spring last year. It’s just so expressive I wanted to share.
Naya has been in the hospital since Saturday now with an infection, pseudomonas, and zero ANC, Absolute Neutrophil Count, counts which means we will be there a while longer. She needs a count of 200 to be eligible for discharge. Your ANC count is 4,000–7,000 by the way.

Her spirits are good and she feels okay she just can’t fight the infection with zero immunity.
With all that, I got the best birthday gift a 51 year old dad could ask for this morning around 6:15. I woke up in the bench/bed beside Naya, got up, jumped in the shower and when I got out, she looked up and said good morning dad, happy birthday!
