Another beautiful day! I got to spend time with my family, my sister, some friends and cousins. Also got to rest quite a bit, and have some good food thanks to Alvina! I am getting better everyday. My fever's gone, my platelets are very high, hemoglobin's holding steady at 7.7, and white blood count came down a bit. Overall, very promising. I may be able to go home sometime next week! I'm so excited to be able to go home soon.
The best thing that happened today was...smiles! The doctor no longer required people to wear masks when they come to the room, so I get to see beautiful smiles - from nurses, doctors, the staff, my precious girls, my husband, sister - everyone! It was so nice to see a person's complete face for a change. The smiles really lit up my day!
Please keep praying that my bone marrow will continue producing good cells, and that I will be able to go home soon. Thanks you all so much for your prayers. I know my journey was much less difficult because of all your prayers, words of encouragement and support. May God bless you all.
