Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Hi,
We live in Houston, TX
My son (4yo) was diganosed with ALL on 3/12- he started his chemo therapy on the 13th - as of his last bone marrow aspiration he showed no leukemia cells in the bone marrow, however due to the treatment his blood count is going down - his last reading for HGB was about 7.5 -
I'm looking for alternatives to increase his blood levels - since i want to avoid blood transfusions due to conscience matters.
Is any Oncologist-Hematologist in Pediatrics in the Houston area that could help us with some guidance or information? We are halfway in the Induction segment of the therapy.

You can reach me at 281-515-2339

Regards,

Bruno
