Last night we noticed a rash on Jayne's arm that was spreading where her pic line was. Her pic line was removed once her port was put in and working. It was used previously for her chemo. The doctor came in and decided to have an ultrasound done to ensure that there was not a blood clot at the sight. She finally returned to the room about 12:30 this morning with great news! No blood clot. The nurses are putting topical cream to help clear it up.
Jayne's white blood cell count went down to 1 today and is right on schedule... the chemo takes a few days to kick in and kill off all her white blood cells. She has been sleeping most of the day and does not have much energy at all! Getting to the restroom and back takes all her energy.
Bit of information I found interesting... Doug's blood type is O negative and Jayne's is O positive. With the bone marrow transplant her blood type will now be O negative!
Prayers for strength and healing are appreciated!
Hydi, thank you for all the updates. It sure is nice espescially for those who cannot be there. Your the best, Love you :)
