Day 2 & 3

Her counts went up a bit yesterday, to 50, and her platelets came up to over 100 after the transfusion.  Her fever still keeps coming back and the viral swab came back positive for Corona virus, which is like a cold so that is probably what is causing all this along side the chemo.

The hospital staff surprised her with a bunch of bday presents and a sign for her door.  It was really neat.  Our children's director from church came by to see her as well.  That was really nice.  She brought balloons but due to other kids' allergies they had to stay at the front.  Her grandma and Nana and Papa all called to talk to her as well.

She took a really long nap yesterday and didn't eat pretty much all day.  She had some Kit Kat after lunch time and then at dinner wanted some mac n cheese and cake.  What should have arrived in 45 min, 1.5 hours later (after closing of the cafeteria) still not here and they called up and apologized like crazy that the order was over looked.  Then they said they were out of mac n cheese.  She didn't want anything else and it was her bday so the lady said she would make it happen.  About 15 min later her food was here!  She didn't even eat half of it but at least she ate some.

This morning she was up early again.  She still has fever and her counts are back down, now to 10.  So I am sure it will be at least another couple days.  Her counts need to be progressing upwards consistently and fever gone for 24 hrs.  She was getting pretty tired around lunch time when I was about to leave and Daddy came.  Then, she seemed to become more alert withall the movement around the room.
