Brinley got a CBC today and she made counts to start the second half of DI tomorrow. She will be getting all new chemo drugs and a LP (chemo in her spine), so I think it will be a long day at clinic. But I am glad to get going on this part so we can get it over with. It's been a nice week off of the drugs. I am nervous about the new meds and am not looking forward to more chemo. I am tired of it, surely if I am, Brinley is too.
Jade update: When I took her to the doctor Friday, I was concerned about her health/emotional well-being, so he took some labs from her nose and we did a blood draw to see if everything looked okay. The blood came back fine (huge sigh of relief for me) but the nose lab grew bacteria. That would explain her low fevers and just not feeling great. So we'll get her going on an antibiotic. So there you go, surely there is a lot going on emotionally, but at least there is some answer to the fevers. We'll just have to wait out the emotional part, you can't exactly sweep cancer under the rug.

Too bad, huh. It's a shame cancer isn't like the huge lint ball that I found on the floor this morning that you can't just throw in the trash and forget ever existed....
Looks like it's time for you guys to go kick some cancer butt tomorrow! I hope that it goes well. Sweet Jade - how life must be for her too right now. I'm sure she'll pull through all the stronger. You're in our prayers.
