Day +20


Nearly three weeks post BMT now, and thankfully cheeky Abigail is now a fairly regular presence throughout the day. No major complications at this point and her blood has continued to improve, with neutrophils at 0.3 now and white cell counts greater than 1 for several days. This is all very good, with only magnesium infusions needed to keep everything in balance.

Hopefully by the end of the week she'll be off her morphine drip and maybe start to come off antibiotics next week. If this all goes OK, than we might even start to be let out of the isolation room for a wee while next week. This will be a great relief to all! Still too early to think of coming home, but we should be past the half way mark by now at over a month since admission.

So, no major news, other than gradual improvements, exactly what we want at this point. She is still not eating, but the NG tube is keeping her going for now. Other than that not much else to report other than transient rashes of little consequence. In short, all good.
