Last day of chemo

Today should be the last day of chemotherapy for this particular phase, so once my blood counts go back up (especially the white blood count and Neutrophines) I will by the grace of God be allowed to go home to prepare for the next phase of chemotherapy which is called intensifiction which just by the name alone sounds quite daunting.

I will also have to wait for my temperature to come down and stay down, it spiked at 40.1 last night although this was during receiving blood. I hope to have a word with the hospital admin today as everything they have given me either fluids or blood products such as blood, platelets or plasma it has always been very very late so you are constantly getting disturbed during the night which is of course not exactly conducive to rest and relaxation which is just as important in getting better as all the drugs and testing etc.

How's it going? You haven't posted for a while. How have you been? Was your brother a match for your transplant?
Too many questions! :) Hope you're well. I've been home for 4 months now, besides the stint back at Dacie for the CMV virus infection. But all's been positive so far. Fingers crossed. Keep me updated!

Take care!
