I know I gave an update yesterday but I wanted to do another one today and everyone is always telling me to do more!
My bloods have started to recover as of yesterday which meant I could walk around the ward with no mask and could leave the ward with a mask on which was really exciting. Usually once this happens it means you've one step out the door to a few days at home and in my case a bit longer as I prepare for transplant.
Then this morning they said I could get home for the day and as I was getting ready they got my blood test back back and said they had dropped again meaning it is too dangerous for me to go out. I am back to wearing a mask at all times outside my room. I know its for my own safety but I was so gutted. Had a good old cry with my mom and noticed that my eyelashes were all over my hands- so I have chalked this up as not a great day!
I'm grand now- just ordered my din dins- chicken curry and a cuppa tea and I know this is just a blip in the road to getting home. My eyelashes did take a beating though so only have a few left- damn it!
My mom starts radiotherapy this afternoon too so Clare is going with her, again I dont know how Clare is doing all this. Not only my donor but looking after me and mom too! She's just amazing.
Adam came in to keep me company one night last week, kept me up chatting until 1am. He is still working on my room but its almost done I think. They found something like 60 handbags under my bed so I can't wait to see what they are and which ones I had forgotten about...probably 58!
So thats all my news for today. Think I will go and knit a bit. For those of you who are wondering what I am knitting its a straight line so far so I'd imagine it will turn into a really skinny scarf for Dawns little man, Percy!
Lots of Love,
Mairéad
