GCF makes the bone marrow a happy place and new cells love to grow there. This is good. But sometimes, like all small children they can have too much sugar. Bad for the kids, and the kids have to give it up. Ellie Mae was cut off her sugar fix.
She is not happy about that and so she is on strike and only made 1600 platelets from 4300 yesterday. Other things are up, some are down. It is so hard to find a happy medium a balance. Every new issue brings a new speciality and team to evaluate it. Cardiac, Nephrolagy, Pain team, PT, OT, social work, psychology and the list goes on....
Good days, bad days, good mornings, bad nights, good meals, bad meals and it goes on.
It is sort of like today. Sun is out but it is very very cold. Good part is that spring is coming despite the set backs.
Great Mandarine Chicken Salad.... Thanks guys.
Twenty Years, Two Hundred and Forty Months, Seven Thousand Days, and Three Hundred Days. Since we started chasing Leukemia.
