Much of the same both these days. Her counts continue to come up. Her ANC is now 250....higher than it has probably been for a while!!! She continues to be force fed hospital food unless we bring her real food :-).She has been able to do some school work with her home/hospital teacher via online.
She is up and about today. She seems very uplifted. The doctors are talking possibly late next week for her departure of this wonderful place. They want to make sure her skin is totally healed before she leaves because the skin is the largest protective organ of your body.
The doctor faxed 7 prescriptions over to our local pharmacy to have available when Jessie gets home! (and she was looking forward to not having to take medicine at home). They have also connected us with a home care company who will supply us with bandages and dressings for her PICC line and a nurse to change it when necessary.
I had this fantasy that she would be able to jump right back into a full 7-8 hour day when she was released. I've come to realize that she will have to take this one day at a time and slowly work her way back into a modified school routine. Reality is setting in. We are in this for the long haul and it will get better one day at a time. :-)
Sounds like you got the right attitude Mom....:) it's all good. One step. At a time...:)
