The good news is that the white blood cell count, the red blood and platelets are beginning to rise on their own. She hasn't had platelets since last Friday and no blood transfusion since last Saturday. The "ANC" or "Absolute Neutrophil Count" is at 100 and has held steady for 3 days. The doctor took her off all the antibiotics today, if she doesn't get any fevers and the numbers continue to show an upward trend she may get out by Sunday.
She still has some rash and swelling in her legs and feet, but we will continue to apply some triple mix lotion they are trying.

That is the best news I have seen on this blog so far - keep it going Mary - you might just get out and at home for a few days or even longer if you keep gaining on all your counts ((((HUGS))))Connie
