Landen was discharged from the hospital last Tuesday. While it was extremely hard to be back in the hospital we knew it was best for Landen. Thankfully it was a short stay. He has felt better and better each day since! His appetite continues to improve and he is eating more and more. We're SO thankful!
The results from the endoscopy didn't look bad at all. It revealed some inflammation in his stomach which was probably some type of virus. It also appears he has a very mild case of GVH. While this is not what we wanted to hear we are thankful and encouraged that it is barely there and it was caught early. They are treating it with a steroid for several days and will then reevaluate and go from there. The pathologist won't even call it GVH but in clinic they have other signs and symptoms to go by. The only other symptom is the levels of the viruses he's been dealing with had increased. This leads them to believe GVH is the cause of that. Hopefully, he won't have to take the steroid long. The fact that he started feeling better before he started the steroid is very encouraging! Please pray for the GVH to be eliminated and for Landen to continue to feel better. It seems he is getting back on track and headed in the right direction! Praise the Lord!
