Chemo Round 2 Day 13

Today was a fairly uneventful day. My white blood count is pretty low today and my neutrophil count (the wbc s that generally fight bacterial infections) are down to 100. Dr. Giannoni is covering for Dr. Lanzotti this weekend. He did not want to let me go home today. If my neutrophil count gets up to 500 tomorrow he may let me go home if I am otherwise, still doing well.

I still have no fever and can still eat well. My sore throat is a little better. I still have a tickle in there and if I talk too much I cough. I am still walking a lot.

Kim and Jeremy will be spending an extra day in California as their flight for today was canceled. They were able to change their flights for no charge and should get home tomorrow night. The church musical from last weekend was rescheduled for tomorrow. It looks like it may have to be changed again due to the snowstorm we are having. I guess God is still going to consider letting me see it live even if I cannot get out tomorrow!

Teresa is getting worn out trying to do all the things we generally both do since I can't help. She shoveled snow this morning. I am sure her arthritis will be bothering her a lot. She doesn't sleep well when I am not home and with all that is on her mind these last couple of weeks, she is not sleeping well. Please pray for her as well as me. Hopefully, I will be able to go home tomorrow or Monday and give her a break.

Doc
