Fever

On Wednesday Sofia woke up feeling pretty yucky. She didn't want to eat a thing and had no energy what s ever. This is so unlike her so we knew she wasn't feeling well. Her temp was hovering around 99 for most of the day and finally jumped to 101 at 6pm. We packed a bag and headed up to Stanford. We knew she would be neutropenic so we were guaranteed an overnight in the hospital. Sure enough her counts came back at zero so they drew blood cultures to check for a bacterial infection, started her on antibiotics and admitted us.

Haspy to report Sofia has been fever free since we arrived and her blood cultures are all coming back clear (no bacteria). Her ANC is only up to10 so we need to see it come up a bit before we can head home. With her ANC so low, she still has no appetite but she's in great spirits. Mike has been taking Noni home and sleeping there "boys party" so mommy and Sofia get to have "girls party" at night, which she loves! We can't wait to get home and relax before we have to start our next round of chemo.
