Good news today. Rachel's white blood counts went from 0.3 yesterday to 0.7 today!! If she stays at 0.5 or above for the next 2 days she will be able to walk in the hallway with a mask on. The nurse coordinator actually came in and is scheduling me for a class so I will know how to administer Rachel's IV meds in case she is still on some when we go back to the condo. They said most patients go back with at least the TBN...which is the nutrition. Going back to the condo could still be a few weeks away, but I was encouraged when she said they schedule these once they see this kind of jump in the wbc.
Rachel still has mouth and throat sores, but I have been glad the medicine is keeping Rachel comfortable. No nausea in the last few days. Now if the shaky and jerky movements get under control that would be great and if something would taste good.
Thanks for all of the prayers everyone...keep praying.
