10/9 White Blood Cell Count delays 2nd Chemo

Tammy's white blood cell count was too low on Thursday for Chemo, so the second treatment has to be rescheduled to hopefully sometime next week (have to squeeze us in). There were indications in the blood test that the white blood cells would recover soon (other types of white blood cells were recovering well), so they weren't worried -- apparently this is common. From now on, I believe she will get an extra drug to help her white blood cells recover faster.

The good news is Tammy is feeling much better (fingers crossed) over the last 3 or 4 days (digestively or surgery related). She is eating more, gaining a small amount of weight back, and exercising more. She even jogged some today. Enclosed is a picture of her taking a bike ride at the lake a few days ago.
