Day +12
So today was another good day so far. My WBC was up again today to 15.4 and my platelets came up on there own to 56. I tried to eat a little today for lunch. I had about a half a cup of an icy. Almost a whole little box of Wheaties, and some juice. Mindy's friends Casie and Grehtta were in the city today shopping and stopped by for a little visit and then all 3 of them went out to paint the town red and go out to dinner somewhere. I am watching PTI right now and just relaxing a bit. It is still really frustrating not to be able to taste anything. The one nurse told me today that it is more important that I start drinking than eating because they want to know when they send you home that you won't get dehydrated. I will try to have some soup for dinner tonight and see if I can get a few sips down. My docs even talked about me getting out of here this morning which was awesome.
