More Happiness
Well at last Dad is infection free. And home from the hospital after 6 weeks of constant battling to get clean of so many infections including 5 hospital bugs. He is so well its amazing. Unfortunately this is due to a magical balance of anti-virals, anti-biotics, and anti-fungals and not because his blood has improved at all.
However it won't be until Monday next week that he goes on to the full 150mg Eltrombopag dose. Then we will really start to be on tenterhooks. Waiting and hoping.
We just need to get Dad's strength back now and muscle mass. A long slow, taxing and emotionally draining process for him. And pray and hope we don't get more infections.
Sally your husbands story is so inspiring and uplifting. Its what keeps us all going - knowing that people have lived through it and come out with SUCCESS! Only for Marrowforum and I would never have heard of Eltrombopag, would never read your story and never found the courage to hope and pursue the stuff.
