Last night we ended up taking Sam to ER cause the fever was hanging around. They started the blood cultures and we don't have results from that yet. Her white blood count is elevated but that could be if she has a cold or flu bug too. Hematocrit had dropped from 30 to 28 in 1 day. She is fighting some pretty bad headaches, some bloody noses, and the fever. Since she had the cultures drawn last night she can take some tylenol for the next 24 hours to see if it helps. We got to come home and did not have to spend the night because her blood counts were good.

We will be praying for the fever and tiredness to go away and those tumors to shrink and DIE!!!!

Love, Lisa
