Hmmmm....

Is there really chemo in that there bag, or is it just saline?

After week one of her treatment, you wouldn't even know that she was on any kind of chemo. We still have another week here to go... just the infusion this week... but we will see the next time they draw labs to see what the full effect of one complete treatment will do to her counts. I suspect that as this goes on, it will take a more accumulative effect, but for now, her counts look pretty good... that is to say good for someone on chemo. I plan on posting (as we get them) her most recent counts again on her page like the last time.

We met with a couple members of the stem cell team today to discuss how to proceed to harvest her cells, or at the very least give us the best chance to harvest her cells.

We have a plan A, a plan B and ugg... a plan C. Let's just say if'n you're into prayering, pray that A works and that there will be no need for B or C... we are, cuz as we move closer to the end of the alphabet, it gets a little uglier, more invasive and has an added pain/recovery factor.

Not much of anything else to tell really, it's so far so good. We won't know to what degree the chemo is working until we have scans done.

That's it from here for now, until the next update...
