WE'RE HOME

Well, Jim's platelets cooperated. After coming off continuous infusions to get the count up to 62, they then went to 65 and after twelve hours were still at 58 so the docs said he could come home if we would come to the clinic every day. (Not a big sacrifice since we were coming every day except Thurs anyway, and who cares if you can sleep in your own bed!)

So, one more day of chemo, then Friday is radiation and the infusion of the cells. What a miracle this whole process has been. He is feeling quite well actually. He came directly in the house, crawled into his bed and promptly took a nap for two hours, totally uninterrupted.

Will try to make brief updates frequently. Oh, his galactomannan is now .09 which means he is officially negative for fungal infection. Much love to all.
