Thursday - Day Nine

Debbie did not need blood or platelets again today which was good. However, her white cell count went up a little and the doctor said she may be fighting an infection. In fact, she had a slight fever today and they immediately began her on an antibiotic. We knew that this was a possibility as her cells are being depleted by the chemo. We will know more when they do her blood lab work in the morning. She felt good and had a good appetite for most of the day although she was more tired today.

Please pray that her body will fight this infection and that the medicine will continue to work in her body.
