October 4th has been a sad day for me since my mother passed away on this date. However, now it holds a new and better memory as it is the day Bob was released from the hospital following his stem cell transplant! It's now a jump for joy day.
Nurse Kathryn gave Bob his stem cell transplant and was the one to discharge him from the hospital. His blood tests showed another big jump:
white blood cells - 10.9
absolute neutrophil count - 9701
platelets - 40
A day of thanksgiving. A day of hugs to nurses. A day of best wishes to those still receiving treatment.
Time to leave and continue recovery in a St. Louis hotel room.
Blessed.
