Update

Hi again :) Sheridan and I went downtown Monday for day 28 of this phase...we were there for about 9 hours. Everything went as planned but it was a long infusion day with required fluids to accompany some of the meds. It was fun chasing her around with the iv pole she was connected too the whole time :) We got home around 6:15 and after she went to bed she developed a fever...so we headed down to Shady Grove ER around 11:30. We were able to start the antibiotics there and come home but didn't get home till 5 a.m. so Monday was a VERY long day! When the nurse came to the house Tuesday afternoon to give her chemo (she came T, W, Th) she taught us how to give the antibiotic and we were able to stay home for the 48hrs instead of being cooped up in the hospital...so the long day Monday was all worth it.

She finished up Thursday with both the antibiotic and the chemo and is deaccessed for the weekend and free to play. She will go back Monday (but not for the long day) and get the same med again at home T, W, Th. Her counts are on the way down so anyone who comes to visit or play will need to be very healthy and wash hands frequently.

Last night we made J.B. dinner for his birthday--Happy Birthday J.B. and Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad. Happy Birthday to Kevin on Sunday! I will post again next week to let you know how things are going.
