Day +44

First thing this morning I took Janet to the airport. It was great having someone here for a few days. It helps to make the time pass and to pick up our spirits. Rachel had a clinic appointment today at 9:30. They were running way behind today and we were there for a long time. Lab work came back good. White counts doing well and platelets too. Rachel may need red blood cells at her next visit on Thursday. Doctors still do not know why her shakiness/mobility issues are worse. They still seem to think it is temporary although they do not know for sure. Please keep praying about this. We realize the transplant probably would not make her better, but we were hoping that it would keep her from getting worse...and right now she is worse than when we came here. Rachel did feel nauseated tonight, threw up and then felt better. Doctors aren't too concerned at this point about the nausea. It does appear to be better, but could still be a while before it goes away.
