Day +16

Amy's white blood count went down yesterday to 0.5 but rebounded today to 0.7. The doctors and nurses have told us that her WBC will be going up and down as Amy's new stem cells start working. Amy's throat is better but cheeks, tongue and inside lower lip have ulcers , are swollen and very painful.

A package arrived for Amy from the Green Bay Packers, welcoming her into the "Wisconsin family" (since her new stem cells came from Wisconsin). She received many items from them, including a football signed by all the players. Thanks MBAs.

One of my favorite things is when Amy receives cards made by students from various classrooms. I love the drawings, spelling and laughs many of the cards bring. Thanks to all the teachers who gave their students time to create these "masterpieces".

  4. Hey to Amy, Kathy and Michael! So excited after reading Greg's Tuesday email that the white counts are up and progress is being made with the mouth soreness. Praise the Lord! And how cool that the Green Bay Packers sent you "stuff"! But you've been a Packer fan for years. It's just been a Sharon Packer fan up to now. (Never did get the Packer name with the tiger mascot, but it is what it is!) Love to you all and many prayers going up daily!
