Tuesday May 19th.....Lab Visit

Went to Emory Clinic today for follow up lab work to check her blood count levels. Got a good report and needed no transfusions today. This is not painful just time consuming.

We go back Friday for another check and will see the Dr. They told us to bring our bags just in case she needs to stay.

Today the Drs. nurse told us that Dr. Khoury which is her main Dr. said he may let her stay home next week and come in 3 times for transfusions rather than be in hospital for a week. We hope that happens. I'd rather take her there 3 times and have her home than for her to have to stay at the hospital.

She is really doing good. Had a wonderful day and was almost herself today.

Tomorrow will be an even better day.

Seems just like they said that each regiment gets a little easier.

We saw 2 people there today that were post transplant and were doing well. That's so encouraging to her to see other people that have had it doing well.

She's sleeping right now. I usually update the blog after I put her to bed. Resting well. Is sleeping all night now.

Today had no nausea or side effects to any degree.

Please keep praying for God's mercy on her as she goes through this very difficult journey.

Thanks to Denny Maulding for all the wonderful food he brought today and for all the other things he has done for us.

Thank You Anthony for all you do for me and for helping me so much with her meds. It's almost overwhelming to keep up with all she has to take with it changing so much.

Will continue to keep you posted. Thanks for caring about us.
