Well, nothing has changed much in herself... still can't take food and still has bad runs (antibiotics) but the good news is that her neutraphils and white counts are up slightly... well they couldn't go down! So this is the first sign that things are starting to pickup.
They tried to get some blood from her this afternoon but it was so painful and unsuccessful. So they are taking it tomorrow somehow. A Hickman or Portacath is absolutely essential as soon a they can fit it IMO. Sal agrees!!! Funny that!
She is resting this afternoon. I might go back this evening but that is up to hr although I am of the opinion she would be better off resting but I am not the patient :-)
Let's hope that the bloods tomorrow confirm the recovery.
