Day +6

it hasn’t been a very eventful 2 days.  Everything is going as it should be which means my White Cells, Hemogobin, Platelets continue to drop.  They do it all in a very controlled manor so that my body has the best chance to grab on to Christi’s Stem Cells, and minimize Graft vs. Host disease.  They are talking possible blood transfusions too, which sounds somewhat counter productive to the dropping levels, but again it is such a balance that they may need to resort to that.

They are taking about starting me on a pain pump this evening or in the morning because of the mouth sores and esophagitis.  Who knew mouth sores could be so painful??  They do, I guess it’s fairly standard.  The chemo is still kicking my butt, but today I managed 2 loops around the unit.  Most of my meds are IV now because I can’t swallow, and even though the IV pole is on wheels, it still takes more energy to lug it around! So for today, I’m happy with my 2 loops.

Peace & Love,

  2. You truly are amazing! Keep up with the laps and I pray for your esophagitis to ease its grip on you. I hope you’re still able to take in a drizzle of pink lady. You are in my prayers daily. God bless you with his healing.
