Day +28

Wednesday, November 6: No fever for 24 hours!! Platelets: 10 Hemo: 7.7 WBC: 2.15 Worn out this morning, overdid the first walk with PT - a little persistent. Realized after being wiped out and with the encouragement of PT that it is best to do shorter walks more frequently than one longer walk. Temperature has been running about 97.1 - 97.6; what a difference. Steroids are helping abate the fevers, although there are still some concerns with the kidneys so they are monitoring the medication levels closely to keep them from getting worse. Received platelets. Been working on daily goals; shower, eat (at least 2 small meals), sit in the chair a couple times a day and walk 1/2 lap 3 times a day. Some of these goals are being met, but are somewhat difficult and exhausting. Eventual goals are to do these unassisted, but for now a couple require assistance. Potentially being discharged tomorrow.
