Let's start with Day 9 - it wasn't all that fun. My blood numbers were in the toilet and so they scheduled for me to have two(2) blood transfusions and one (1) plateletes transfusion during the day, so I pretty much locked onto my IV rack for all the day. And to top it off, during the afternoon, my little stem cells have decided to start the engraftment process (go where they are suppose to be and start working) - which is great, but there is some pain involved them doing that great thing. So with some good medications and help from the BMT staff I am making it through this process. The pain is generally better today, but I still get little pockets of pain in my bones. Just nothing like I had to deal with last night, we'll see how that progresses.
Day 10 - I had a visit from Dr. Gaow this morning (I'll check spelling) to talk about my numbers. All of the nutriphils are moving up, All of the other blood numbers are much better and so we had a little talk about when I might get out of the hospital and be able tomove to the motel for the next 2-3 weeks. It looks like it will probably be Friday, but there is also a slight chance they'll kick me loose on thursday, which means I'll try to get in touch with Daniel or someone to help me. We've got a couple of days to worry about that and so I won't make any decisions about it right now.
We'll see how things work and hope and pray for the best solution to present itself. Thank you all for all your thoughts and prayers, They are working. Until next time.
