Spoke with the doctor this morning. He said that when the biopsy came back and they didn't find any signs of radical cancer cells but couldn't say Diana was in remission was because the chemo wiped out all the good cells too. So we wait for the blood cell counts to come up. Once that happens they do another biopsy. If that biopsy shows no signs of cancer cells then they can say she is in remission.
On the up side, as of this morning Diana's counts really took a positive jump. The two that we are reall watchhing are the WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNT and the ANC COUNT. Yesterday the WHITE count was .6 or 600. This morning they are up to 1.1, or 1100!!!!! YEAH! :) The ANC yesterday was 50. Today it is 140!!! YEAH! :)
We are still hoping that she can come home for christmas. Hopefuly tomorrow will show another big jump.
Still has an occasional fever, mostly at evening but they haven't been very high.
Spoke with the bone marrow transplant people this week also. When they do the transplant she will be here at the hospital for 2 to 3 weeks. We will have to clean the house BIG TIME before she can come home. They said including cleaning the carpets. She willl need to have someone with her 24 hours a day 7 days a week for 100 days, less however many days in the hospital.
There are blessings that we see each week, they are mostly small but anything in the positive direction is good and we will take that.
Thanks for all the prayers!
What fantastic news! Diana you are a strong women with love, hope, and faith in your heart. Jeff you are right there with Diana, you are both wonderful examples of being lifted up in Christ during trials. We love you and are so excited to hear this news. We will keep praying that you can be home for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed about 5 years ago with HIV and have lived taking ARV and thought of having Herbal medicine to cure this disease completely. I wouldn't be able to bear Vomiting and my tongue would go white because of these diseases called HIV/Aids. I learned to live with it but I have definitely prayed and had hands laid on me, My friends at work knew about my HIV Status so on a faithful day my friend Hannah talk to me about this great man called Dr Itua From west African because my friend Hannah is from West African too she came to acquire degree here in South Carolina, I accepted the challenge and contacted Dr Itua Herbal Center...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com also chats on Whatsapp Number.+2348149277967. Then he delivered his Herbal medicine to me which was labeled as Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cure For HIV/Aids, I took it as he instructed. After two weeks I went to the test and I was tested Negative.
