White Blood Cells are cells of the immune system involved in defending the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials.

Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell, comprising about 50% - 70% of all white blood cells.

The measure of a normal person's WBC is between 12.5 - 15.0, and Neutrophils between 1.5 - 8.5.

Samuel had his blood check done yesterday back at the hospital and his readings for WBC = 0.99 and Neutrophils = 0.15

We need to be very concious of his personal hygiene as well as the surrounding environment. The boy has a habit of putting his fingers into his mouth, and dislike washing his hands and frequently.

Absolutely no visitors at this stage, so do forgive.

Next tuesday, 26th Jul, 9am is the scheduled re-admission for the 2nd round of chemo.

Meanwhile, we pray that Sam will not succumb to any virus or bacterial infections because of low immunity.
