Linda continues to make remarkable progress. Thanks for all the prayers. They are working!
She went out to the regular floor yesterday (Rm 3039, Bayshore Medical center, Pasadena TX). Finally, the WBC is back to normal with the Neupogen shots. She started to eat a soft diet today at supper.
She is still extremely weak and is getting physio - moving legs in bed, sitting in chair etc.
With any luck, she can come home Monday for a couple of days before going back in the hospital for the next 5 day chemo course on Wednesday 8th.
She has her work cut out to get her strength back, start walking etc. This can continue through the chemo next week.
So far, she hasn't had the severe pain from the Neupogen this time around. Thanks be to God.
Her attitude is very positive and she will see this treatment through, including the transplant in late July.
As a kid in the 50's and 60's, I remember Walt Disney Presents each week. There were 4 'lands' (Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Adventureland and Frontierland). This wild ride our family is going through I think should be called Lymphomaland. It is wilder and scarier than anything Disney could conjure up. And the brushes with death are very real.
Dear Linda,
ReplyDeleteI was so glad to hear you are doing better. I hope you can get home for a couple of days before the next chemo. You are in all our prayers and you know how powerful pray-ers we are.
(with God's help) Love, Alberta
