Shanean's/christene's cells are coming back now. Today her counts were 0.6 which is considered the beginning of engraftment. As the cells increase so too should Shanean - her mouth and throat are still sore although seem to have stabilized and not got any worse
Everything should come back to normal and she will be let home when she is "unsupported" meaning no more transfusions or cell booster injections
Once she is at home she will still be at the hospital quite a bit for regular checkups and possible further treatment - probably every week to start with decreasing to every 2 weeks over time. They will check that all her counts are ok and keep a close eye out for any early warning signs of graft vs host disease
Jy is die mees wonderlike vrou wat ek weet Shanean!! lewe is vol van die up en downs, maar maak nie saak wat jy vashou aan dit en gee alles wat jy het!! dink aan jou. liefde altyd Breeze
