Feb 23 - Day 19/30 School what???

Yea! She felt well enough to do some school work today. Also, her friend Amos is picking up a packet from school for 3 subjects. Got to start working on catching up when she feels good. :-)
They are increasing one of her antibiotics to make sure that she is covered for skin infections especially. Her ANC is up to 170! Great news- see bolded explanation of ANC from yesterday.
Her white blood cells are also up to 790. Everything seems to be coming up slow, but sure. Slow and steady wins the race!
The docs and nutritionist are threatening Jessie with an appetite stimulant. She doesn't want it so she is eating what she can. I brought her a Tasty Turkey on a cheese bagel for lunch. She ate 1/2 of it. She also ate 1/2 of a spinach veggie wrap that the made especially for her down in the cafeteria. Her stomach turns when she smells the hot food on the food cart in the hallway at each meal time. Nothing smells good then.
