.don't know what exactly changed, I'm , not walking around, still can't manage my own bowels, etc. But have found my appetite and have wanted to get on with things, buoyed up on news from dr & specialist that my neutrophils are. 0.6 following a 0.2 0.4 pattern.
It's still, anti-sickness, vial, fungal, stomach lining protector,, etc. On multi occasions each day, and plateletetttes And blood transfusions iv
and minerals and fluids with regularity, little physical strength, so some very unpleasant encounters with nurses,, but we've definitely turn red a corner.
Who knows, could be home Friday ? More likely the following.....
And then it'll be part 3 to think about.
WOW, Si - 0.6!!! up 0.2 in a very short time. That's fantastic. You will bounce back to the required 1.0 in no time. Good to read your appetite has returned too (that's always a good sign - especially with you!!). Fingers crossed for home in a week......much love, Roz xx
ReplyDeleteHi Mate,
ReplyDeleteBlimey, it sounds like you've certainly been through the mill and back several times over. Now you've turned the corner though, you'll definitely be on an upward trajectory all the way! You'll be home before you know it and just imagine how many cakes and biscuits will be waiting for you this time round! We both look forward to seeing you really soon. Loads of love Jeanette & Alex xxxxxx.
Fantastic news Si! What you need now is to come back home, beef yourself up with cakes and homecooked food and then soak up the neighbourly love and hugs.
ReplyDeleteSee you soon,
Pete, Bea, Jake & gelly xxxx
in your own dear words "well done you" :) x

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you have turned a corner, and I hope you are able to get home on Friday for some home comforts.
ReplyDeleteI am currently nursing a strained back, from moving too many logs of wood :(
but the snow has arrived and it makes everything look fab, so hot water bottles for the back are the order of the day :)
love and gentle hugs xx Kay
Good on YOU buddy... You beat that "Hell in a handbag" roller coaster ride AGAIN! We knew you would. SO sorry it’s taken so much out of you this time! Still, there is light at the end of that tunnel in the shape of warm hugs and yummy things to eat at home, not far off now… Just remember we're on this ride with you… We may not be in the car behind or in front, so you’d be able to hear our yells of encouragement when you need it most. But, we are here… With you every step of the way on your journey! MASSES of our fondest love Si, XxXx
ReplyDelete... We're here with and for you too Di!!! But you'll know that I'm sure?! Masses of love to you both XxXx
ReplyDeletePS - Our news: -5C with NO HEATING!!! About to fill the boys beds with hot water bottles and hope the water doesn't freeze overnight! Or the boys, for that matter. Body heat! Might all end up in the same bed. It's usually cozy in the mornings at Splott, with four in the bed. Lets hope it will be tomorrow!? :) x
hi si, very happy to hear you feel you've turned a corner and can glimpse light at the end of the tunnel! round two sure has been a bitch but you've come through and hopefully can look forward to some home time with Dai and lovely cakes and hugs aplenty!! kisses xxx
ReplyDeleteGreetings S. You catch me up early. Jet lagged on return from a longhaul flight from Beijing. I have read all your postings and tried to contribute from China - but no access allowed! I spend a week at CAFA. Its the best artc school, well the best funded, in China. They pitch themselves high - EG Anna Wintour was talking in the morning. I checked out new fashion designers/shops and exhibitions and enjoyed the break. Take care. Remember to buy those nurses a big xmas pressie! Cxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteJust sending you and Dai Love and light
