Rays of sunshine.
Hi Ruth, your right, Nellie has been very brave throughout this ordeal. And yes, I have a wall stacked with Ensure and Boost drinks that she won't drink. Don't think she likes them. But yesterday she had soup for lunch and dinner, that our oldest daughter brought. Guess what kind.... Yep, Cream of Broccoli from Subways and Crystals. She ate every bit. And to my surprise, kept it all in.
That is one ray of sunshine, the other is: Not too long ago I was warned against becoming a decimal watcher. But you know what, after more than a week of looking at 0.2 white counts a 0.7 is a ray of sunshine. And so what if I am a decimal watcher. Dr Morris said, Awe, counts will go up and down for awhile. Well I am hoping for up from here. Other counts seem to be holding too. Reds in the 9s and plts at 65. Lets see what happens tomorrow. Keep on praying guys. God Bless.
Eli
