Marlon has had several transfusions in the two weeks he had been in hospital.  Mostly just platelets.  I think 4.  Surprising how fast the levels went down.  Yesterday, he also had a blood transfusion.  First one this time around. 

Pretty good today.  He had breakfast and shortly after that took a nap.  Two of his aunts came by for a visit.  We hung out for a bit and then Marlon's latest food craving had us leave the hospital grounds to go find poutine.  Nice for Marlon to get out though he did find the heat and sun a bit much. 

His craving was very specific poutine with bacon and cheese sauce and gravy.  Specifically on home style fries. 

Boy did he enjoy that meal. The other fries we had were with guacamole and green onions.  Not bad. 

Marlon felt great for about two hours after his meal and then the nausea hit.  Like a small truck according to him.  He was miserable for several hours.  But he did it.  He did not throw up.  A victory.


It may not look like much but this poutine made him very happy for a while.
