Home At Last

Katie is home. She made it through the night without spiking a fever. We went back in to Fletcher Allen at 10 am this morning to have one more blood sample drawn and to have her port deaccessed just as we had planned. Deaccessing was over in seconds and we were on our way home. She slept most of the way home. Now that she is here, she has had a nice lunch and watched a movie and now she wants to go for a walk. It's good to be home.

We take her to North Country tomorrow after school for another blood test to determine what comes next. Her current numbers are as follows:
Hemoglobin, 8.6
White blood cells, 42
Platelets, 59
ANC, 100 (down from 160 yesterday)
