Shellshocked

Sam again. Day +18

I am sorry to report that Graham still isn't up to making an entry in his Blog.

His Neutrophils have been bouncing up and down since they increased to 60 a week ago. They were at 80 yesterday and thankfully today they have tripled to 240. We are hoping this is the sign that they will now really take off.

He is still really fatigued and nauseous and what I would describe as suffering from "shell-shock".

I figure that he has been through so much what with arriving and expecting to have the transplant, to finding out he had relapsed, to the chemo not working, given 2 months to live and then finding out that the chemo had actually worked and getting the transplant; he just needs some time to process everything.

All is well and hopefully he will be out of hospital before my Mum and the kids arrive on Wednesday.

We can't wait to see them.
