Day 6

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will make your paths straight."
Proverbs 3:5-6

Hi everyone, unfortunately she will be in the hospital for a while longer. Her blood platelet counts are pretty low so they may need to do a blood transfusion. She has had a slight fever. Doctors say this is due to the dead cancer cells releasing toxins, but at least the chemo is working. They will keep her here in order to watch for infection since her body is unable to fight it by itself. They have her on antibiotics also. She is feeling pretty bad unfortunately and probably will not feel better until her blood counts go up in a few days. She will also have to miss her next chemo treatment next week but the doctor said this won't make too much of a difference since the body needs time to heal before more chemo.

Debi and Loretta are flying here today to be at home with Dani. It will make it much easier for Dani to have her aunts here for her. We are all just trying to take everything one day, even one hour, at a time. Looking too far ahead is overwhelming; so we must only focus on the present. Thanks everyone for your support.
