Day 10 Going Home tomorrow

HGB 9.8
WBC 7800 up 6500 WOW!
PLT 58K

The nurses and doctors were all impressed with the jump I had in my WBC. They said I was good to go on Monday! I need a ride. If not, Tuesday will be just fine it's just another day I have to spend in here.

Doing well today. They have been taking me off the IV meds and giving me pills. So far, so good.

Breakfast was grits...YUCK never liked grits. So, I hoping for something good for lunch. I need some food on my stomach so I handle the pills before me.

Overall, I feel good about getting out of here. I don't think I'm going to miss this place at all...
Port and catheter is due to come out tomorrow. Discharge after that.

Great to see you are complaining about the food. That's always a great sign. I hope Monday works out. Monday, Monday, Monday...

Going home - what sweet news! Make sure to get plenty of rest and steer clear of sick folk on the outside. I am just now expanding my horizons to the grocery store. Then again my counts took forever to bounce back up. You are doing so great you will be just fine at home.

Just think undisturbed sleep and full showers coming soon.
