Sunday Update -- Have you seen those counts?

Trish is napping and I am working, but thought I would take a break and post an update. Trish's counts are still on the rise -- slow and steady and no fall-backs. This is much more encouraging than the counts after CloSi. If she wasn't having the other issues, I'm sure we would have the transplant prep well under way by now. It could take much of this next week to get the gyn issues cleaned up and get us back on the transplant trail. Trish was so pleased with her blood results that she asked me to email Dr G whose on vacation till Wednesday to let her know how well she was doing.

This morning Trish went for a CT scan, I guess just to confirm all is well post-op. She'll get platlets some time today and I'm guessing she'll get a bag of reds sometime in the next 24 hours, her hematacrit is getting low and she's tired.

I really don't like being on this floor - I feel I need to be here to insure that she gets half of the care she gets on any ward on the 5th floor. But you know Trish, she doesn't complain -- she's a trooper.
