The doctors say all the cultures and bloodwork are coming back clear, no signs of infection which is great news. Her WBC is only at .5 right now and her platelets go up when she gets a unit and then head back down - but she is doing much better. They are talking about letting her go home tomorrow to finish recuperating there. She'll have to go back to the hospital every day for 10 days to continue receiving antibiotics in IV form. Her spirits are pretty low right now and they think it may be better for her to go home and be out of the hospital. So we'll see how it goes, they are checking on her insurance to make sure they'll pay for the antibiotics if she isn't admitted...
Kam and I went over tonight to see her and she looks a ton better but the central line in her neck is really bugging her and keeps bleeding so they are keeping an eye on that. She had dinner there but it didn't look like she ate much of it. Her brother Dave called while we were there and that sure perked her up, he'll be here on Saturday morning with his daughter Kari. They'll be here until the 9th and she is looking forward to their visit.
