It's Day 5 and I'm happy to be back to my blog. I had no energy or interest over the weekend but I thank you, as always, for your comments which I receive via my email as well, so please know that they are never overlooked.
The weekend was challenging, but we made it through. Dave had to be out of town and I have to give a huge shout out to my friend DJ who stayed with me all weekend and treated me like a queen. She literally waited on me hand and foot!
This afternoon is like a whole new day after I received fluids and anti-nausea meds this morning. What a world of difference! I will get the same infusion every morning this week so I am hopeful that I'll soon get my energy and appetite back. I can't stand the smell of real food and poor Dave (for those of you who don't know, he is the cook in our house and enjoys preparing and eating a proper meal) had to eat out last night so that the house wouldn't be filled with cooking smells.
The blood work this morning showed that my white blood cell count has plummeted again. It is a 0.2 (normal is 3.5-11), but this was expected. Back to living in a bubble for a while until it returns to normal. My red blood cells, platelets and hemoglobin are also low, so I guess I have a good enough excuse for having no energy, i.e. being a Lazy Susan.

I thought about you and worried about you all weekend, but I knew you were in good hands. Denise wouldn't let me visit. She thought I might still be too germy! lol. Dr. DJ knows best, but I sure do miss you. I hope I get to see you as soon as your levels go up. I'm so relieved you're feeling better.
