No Surgery
Johnny was supposed to have his first cataract surgery today (they do one eye at a time) but the doctors decided to postpone it until next Monday because his red blood cell count is still a little low. The cell count has been going up but it's not where it should be. Instead of doing a transfusion, the doctors want to wait a week and let the levels go up on their own. They'll also re-check his eyes to see if anything has changed. I'm glad that he won't need the transfusion and that he'll have another week to grow a little before surgery but it is a little frustrating that we have to wait to continue his treatment.
