Closer...

Well, her numbers are up to 540 (not neutropenic) but not at that 750 yet!!! All of her other numbers are still looking great and she is still feeling well. Here's the tricky part. Once she starts DI she gets a ton of chemo on day 1 and than goes in three days later for another big chemo on day 4. This means day 1 has to be either a Monday, Thursday or Friday as the Bass Center clinic, where the chemo is given, is closed on the weekends. So we thought that since we weren't ready for tomorrow that we would plan for Friday. Apparently Monday is a holiday so they aren't giving chemo 👎🏼. So we check labs next Monday and start next Tuesday.
Though I love having Sofia feeling great, it is beyond nerve racking to not give her chemo when we know she needs it. This will be a 3 week no meds break! Scary but normal for many. We have to trust that this is just what her body needs right now and that this break will just make her stronger to fight!!!
So, lots more dance parties this week and maybe a mid week surprise outing (in a non crowded location).
Thank you all for your prayers, we can feel the power of prayers coming from everyone who surrounds our life!
