well abbi is on her last day of chemo for her 2nd cycle, we are sitting in hospital today cause clinic is not open, we are waiting for the chemo to get here. so i figured an update was overdue. anyway, things are good, since my last update abbi has become neutropenic, her wbc and anc has dropped, to be expected, but seems to be going up slowly again now. but her hemoglobin and platelets are dropping now. we have made it so far with no transfusions and we plan on getting through it with no transfusions. some good news is that she might be able to have this chemo in our hometown, so we are praying for that. would be such a nice break. my husband and son stayed home while abbi and i and a friend came down. and i have to say i am proud of dennis for holding down the fort while we were gone, bringing blake to school, going to work, cooking dinner, cleaning house. i have to admit i was nervous. but it all worked out. so after this chemo today we are headed home! excited and so ready to go home! so goodbye for today, Abbi's Mom
