White blood cell count very low

[Uben]

6. Much,much better today

Today marks a week since she took the first chemo treatment, and the doc said that was usually the worst part of it. While her WBC count is still low, it is improving and they gave her another shot of the Neupogen (sp) today. Doc said her liver functions were coming back, which means the chemo is doing it's job! She can eat anything that is not raw, so she made me go get her a burger at this restaurant that has great mesquite grilled burgers. Her appetite is coming back, her color is back, and she actually walked the length of the hosp. floor she was on with the therapists. What a change a day can make! Yesterday she was about ready to give up, and today she was arguing with the staff, which tells me she's feeling much better.
