Mel ate food today, went on a walk and took a shower! That is huge!! Her neutrophils were .3, up from yesterday. According to mom, we are looking for the white blood count to come up, so we watch for the neutrophil counts to come up. Mel will be having another bone barrow biopsy either tomorrow or Thurs. I guess the results will tell the doctors where we go from here.
Mel had some visitors from her ward yesterday. Courtney and Shelley Balls stopped for a visit on their way home from the airport. They had been in Hawaii and brought Mel some chocolate covered macadamia nuts...so thoughtful!
I wish I knew the story behind Mel wearing purple gloves on her feet. I'm thinking is must be from when her feet and hands were so sore and it hurt to get them wet in the shower. It definitely shows that Mel hasn't lost her sense of humor!
