Melissa is starting to do better. They changed the antibiotic and the white cell count has started to drop. It has gone down 5 points each of the last two days. They want it down some more before they will let her go home but perhaps in a day or two.
She is having a pic line put in today because the antibiotic is so strong it is hard on the veins. She may have to come home with it to finish the meds. the doctor told her she will need to take it for longer than she would be in the hospital if she gets to go home soon. We can handle that with a home health care nurse. We did last year.
She is eating alot, like every two hours she is hungry. She is always talking about food. She even took a trip to the cafeteria last night between 1:00 and 3:00am.
