So when she did not make counts we decided to pray hard that they would recover today before her planned round of chemo. They had less than 24 hours to do what we needed them to do. I posted on facebook asking for prayers as well as us asking family and friends to pray with us. Everytime I got a notification that someone said they were praying or text me that they were praying I would literally tear up. This has been such a long process, one that has required tons of faith.
I met my mom at the office as we usually do and they accessed her port to draw her labs and we sat and waited for the WBC number to pop up on the screen, and you won't believe it......it came back as
3.3
It was one of many, many moments through this process that I think both my mom and I had a moment of Thank you God!!
We are so thankful, yes it would be nice to be able to skip a round of chemo but in the end it is best for her if we can fight through, get them all on time and finish off this cancer:) If she hadn't made counts they would have had to give her a shot of Neupogen (to attempt to increase her WBC) and then checked her blood again. I don't know about her but I am tired of watching her get poked all the time, so we are so thankful that she will get to pass that this time.
Thank you to everyone who has, who did, and who continue to pray for our mom and us. You cannot begin to realize what a blessing you have been. Even Dr. Munoz said, "Your faith and your support is what is helping you fight this and fight it hard!"
