Friday

I get to go home today for the weekend after my afternoon treatment. As of right now I don’t need to be hooked up to fluids for the weekend. I just have to make sure I drink plenty of liquids. I have to be at Group Health at 8:00 am Monday morning for the stem cell transplant. I’ll be there for about 8 hours hooked up to IV fluids. The actual transplant will only take about 10-30 minutes depending on how many bags they separated my stem cell into & will take place somewhere around 11:00 am to noon. Monday my immune system will be completely gone. It’s on it’s way down now. Depending on how I feel I might not have to go to the hospital Tuesday. We’ll just take each day at a time.
