i haven't been doing much updating lately, Abbi is doing great. she received her second dose of donor cells on the 10th of February. these donor cells are hopefully supposed to help her immune system recover quicker. we will be so happy when she can stop this medicine and go back to school. she has lost some weight, so if she doesn't try to gain at least a pound or two by the 23rd, her next visit, they will give her another med. to stimulate her appetite. it is not easy to get someone to eat who doesn't want to plus she now wants to be a vegetarian. but the docs said it was OK as long as she was getting her protein elsewhere, eggs, yogurt, milk etc. so i am trying by buying whole milk instead of 2 percent, to add extra calories. carnation instant breakfast shakes add more calories. and keeping track of what she eats and track of her weight helps. well she has never really been a great eater, she has her good days and bad. but she will get there. she is playing with her friend now so i will go, everyone have a great day.
