Week 4: HSCT waiting for numbers to be Right

We are at the finish line, just waiting to get the right numbers. Labs every other day. I finally came around to the fact that my body is tired and naps are good. As an overthinker, you just get used to letting the mind just carry the body on.

At this point, post chemo they want you to drink and urinate all the chemo toxins out. Your body is exhausted because of the depleted neutrophils, white blood cells, hemoglobin, etc. It is all a normal body response, so you have to take serious care.

Got a cold and aparently its normal with my white blood cell count going up. Patience and time.

But time moves so slowly when you are stuck in a small time capsule.

Thankfully,

I have been getting balloons from my peeps at home.

What they call my Stem Cell Birthday took place last week

I am reborn in this new immune system. I feel good in my new body, albeit, for a minute I was feeling very week and ill. But that is the chemotherapy.

My Stem Cell Birthday is March 18!
