I got a text from my mother today asking if I was back in the hospital with Sarah. Yes, we are. It also tells me that I haven't put up a blog post in a while. Sarah's ANC number yesterday was 2300. It was were we wanted it to be.
So we are back in the hospital on schedule. Sarah gets another dose of Methotrexate today over 24 hours. She is in the hospital until she gets below 0.1 for her Methotrexate levels. She did this by Saturday last time. Hopefully she can do it faster this time. We are in "isolation", which basically means, we don't have contact with other patients or parents in the ward. They put us in isolation because Sarah had a runny nose yesterday in clinic. She gets her own room but the nurses need to get things from the fridge and stuff. We can have visitors, but they can't linger in the ward after the visit. Just like before, they also ask that those who are sick to not come and visit. Sarah is in better moods this time, compared to last visit so hopefully it will be easier on everybody.
Life never seems to stop. Lilly has been sick for the past week or so with a cough at nights and we have had her not sleeping in the same room as Sarah. She came home from school with her eyes all red. Jess took her to after-hours clinic and found out she has pink eye. So she is home from school today.
This weekend was fun. Jess took Lilly to the ward Christmas party on Saturday. She had fun. She then went with dad skiing for a couple of hours. She had forgotten all she did from skiing last time. She did good and is working on getting her stopping down. We also had a group of carolers from the ward surprise us last night with a bunch of Christmas carols. It was fun.
Thanks for all the love and support. We are grateful for all those who show their support for us.
It was very cool seeing you and Lilly at Snoqualmie. She was having a blast even if she had forgotten how to stop. Emily wants to bus downtown to ski with me on Friday evenings :)
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to get out my skis for the first time this season. It was fun seeing you up there too. Hopefully, I can get Lilly so she can ski most of the mountain up there by the end of the season. I might have to tag along on some of those friday evening ski trips. :)
