Finally Home!

Hi Faye and Annette,
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I knew the first couple of rounds were the worst, but man it just seems like one thing after another. The good news is my gut feels the best it has in months!

That's great Faye that your blasts are now 5%! Hoping I will be there soon.

One of the most frustrating things at the hospital was telling the infection disease spec. and the int med docs repeatedly that my ANC was not going to go up, no matter how long I stayed there. I kept asking them to call my hematologist and they finally did and of course he told them that my ANC had been close to 0 for months and wasn't going up. This was the same thing that happened last time too. I guess 0 ANC really freaks out doctors that aren't hematologists.

Anyway, thanks to all for prayers and encouragement. It's good to be home.

Tracey
