Today is day +6, Rachel has a few more mouth & throat sores. They have put her on a low dose of continuous morphine and she also has a pump so she can get some extra when she needs it. Still feeling nauseated, and those meds are the same. She had a day about like yesterday, but she did get online for a few minutes this afternoon and managed to open a couple of packages she received and she said she was feeling better at the moment. No blood products were needed today as hemoglobin and platelet counts were good. Tomorrow they will test for white blood cells I don't think they expect to see much, but day +7 is the first day they test for them.
