Still in the “dip”

On Friday they told me that my blood cell counts are still close to zero and don’t show recovery yet. They gave me another bag of blood to replenish my red blood cells. They also told me that the preliminary date (Monday the 21st) at the VUmc for the stem cell apheresis is not realistic. The date will be pushed back and depends on the blood results of Monday morning. Because two days of stem cell stimulation injections are necessary, the earliest day possible for the apheresis at the VUmc is Wednesday.

In the mean time, I just have to wait and hope I won’t get sick. Luckily Adrienne is here and we can play a board game.
