New numbers
I went to the hospital today and my numbers had improved dramatically:
- White Blood Count: 2.7 (still low-ish)
- Red Blood Count: 3.27 (still low-ish)
- Platelet Count: 251,000 (up from 38,000 — WOO HOO)
- ACN: 1836 (up from 392 — WOO HOO)
As a result, I received my weekly dose of Gemzar. I’m feeling a little tired, but fine otherwise. Of course, my first week on Gemzar it wasn’t until the next day that I started feeling yucky. So we’ll see how I do tomorrow. I am hoping that whatever effects from the chemo I experience, the effects dissipate before I travel with my younger son. I really am hoping this weekend away will give my son the opportunity to forget all the responsibilities he’s taken on himself. I want this weekend to be fun together time (with me and his aunt, uncle, and grandparents) and all about my younger son. Here’s hoping.
