My numbers are doing awesome and as of last week the doctors
think I only need to come in every Friday (which is so nice). Neweys are at 2700 and white count is at 4.7.
Yesterday’s visit was good.
I currently have GVH (a rash on my chest and a little on my face.) I noticed it a few days ago and started itching. Dr. Miller gave me a cream for my chest and
we are watching to see if the rash spreads. (yuck) Not only does the rash itch it feels like a
little sunburn and feels hot. Not
enjoying this part of the healing process but knew it was coming.
Took blood yesterday for my T-cell count and a Cimerism
count (meaning how much of the donor cells are there vs. mine). Takes about 7-10 days to get the info. It should let us know if the donor stem cells
are working. Hope they are kicking the
leukemia’s ass!! Going back in on
Tuesday to check the rash and if need be we’ll do a biopsy on it (ouch)…..otherwise
I just deal with it and go with the flow.
Girls are doing great. McCall went to Boulder for 6 days for
a soccer tournament. Their team won the tournament
and had so much fun. Thanks to the
Gordon’s for taking her. She had a great
time. Callie continues to pursue gymnastics and gets better every week.
