Real Lift off!

Its official what was a tiny rise yesterday was a giant step today. In two days I have gone from flat counts to NON-Neutrapenic! Wow that ‘whiff of G’ yesterday was doing its stuff cause I went from 0.00 neutrophils to .07 yesterday to 1.07 today! Yes that does seem to be a big jump! They came from day 5, nine days ago, of 1.35 then down to.64 then.17 then .03,.02,.01 before going to zero and now coming up like that is remarkable. White cells did similar. It flattened to .2 for several days then yesterday was .5 and today was 1.8 that level was last seen in day 5 as well.

So Rick’s cells have landed and are producing new blood cells. They were talking about me going home next week if I don’t get a temperature. Still a lot of work to be done by my body and my new cells so don’t go counting chickens……I know Lisa and Alicia that you actually have chickens you can count but don’t do it yet.

My hair was coming out in chunks so I gelled it up today and then when Jo and Gene got here, I got rid of it. However Jo being herself did a pattern which you might see in this picture. Other pictures are at http://s152.photobucket.com/albums/s195/chrisolin/ they show Jo mid flight and me with little pom poms I made her shave off.

I’m going to try to blog earlier tomorrow so I’m not so tired as I am tonight so ….

More later
