Day 10 - My tastebuds are back again!!!


Things are starting to look up! Last night Tammy made a blueberry parfait and I could taste it and it was wonderful. Today at the Clinic Dr. McSweeny said that I don't have to have one of the iv drugs that was every 8 hours. And he said that the kids can come back down! So tomorrow they will be here. I also found out that my white blood count was up to 1.3 which means that I am no longer at the worst stage and my stem cells are engrafting! It will probably be around August 11th that I will be able to go back home. I was able to get my discharge papers; and I will probably have a discharge meeting late next week. McSweeny said that they just want to monitor me for the next week.
