Coming Home

I just wanted to let everyone know that the doctors are sending me home this week. :) I am so happy. I can't wait to get home. Maybe I'll be able to sleep and actually rest. LoL!!! They haven't said exactly what day, but I do know by Thursday at the latest. I have my first clinic visit Thursday. They will be checking my blood counts to determine the send off date. My red blood cell count is high- yay! My platelets are stable- yay! But my white blood cell count has plateaued- eeek! So, focus thoughts and prayers on a raised white blood cell count. I really need them to fight off infection as I transfer back into the "real" world. I'm gonna be one of those funny people at Wal-Mart with a blue mask on and gloves!!!! :) I can't express how much it has meant to me to receive positive feedback here and in all the wonderful notes, cards, and letters in my room. I love you all. And I will continue to post here as I move back home. The doctors will be drawing up a treatment plan based on my next bone marrow biopsy. This plan will tell me how many times a week I'll have to go to the clinic for out-patient chemo. The thought is about 3-4 times a week, but we still aren't positive. Thanks again for all of ya'lls support and love.
