Week 11 update - She's headed home

Chelsea is be home shortly and staying until at least next Monday. She breezed through for second treatment with absolutely no complications.

We are hopeful within the next week or so, the results of Christopher's bone marrow genetic testing will be received. If he is, the transplant will be done after the third treatment. If he is not, she will continue on with the fourth and fifth chemo treatments.

Mommy and Daddy are really proud of her.

Week 8(and a half) Update

My apologies for the delayed post. The delay, in part, was due to the fact there is really nothing new to report. Chelsea completed her second round of chemo treatment and her ANC has dropped below 200, meaning that she is neutraphenic and is confined to her room(except for one hour of playtime per day in the playroom). It is not bad though, in comparsion to her first stay, where she spent a majority of the days hooked on an IV stand getting fluids or antibiotics because of flu and pneumonia. Thus far, she is feeling great this time around, which allows for a good part of her day free to roam her room.

We are just waiting for Chelsea and her ANC count to recover from the chemo. Hopefully, no infections this time around and she can be home in a couple of weeks.

Take care and enjoy the rest of weekend!
