Low counts this week

Today we traveled to Fort Worth for a blood check.  Plans were to check them yesterday in the Abilene clinic but our sweet nurse called to let me know she was sick with the stomach bug.  I decided to make an appointment in Fort Worth instead of risk being around her this week.  Kinslee had a nice quick clinic visit but her ANC was 240 which means she's at the highest risk for infection but it also means the chemo she got is doing its job!!!!  She didn't need blood or platelets so that was a huge plus!  She is scheduled to start the next phase on Tuesday but we don't really expect her to make counts.  It may take a few weeks for her counts to come up.  Her ANC needs to be 750 or higher to begin Interim Maintenance II.  We will check counts here in the Abilene clinic on Monday and if she's ready we will begin on Tuesday if she's not we will check counts again the following week.  Please pray she does not have a long delay and that her counts start going up!  She still feels amazing and has had a wonderful week!  Thank you for the prayers!!!  We are forever grateful!
