So far so good. Compared to where she was at this stage after her previous transplant, Denise is doing well. That said, the effects of her white cell count continuing to go down are expected to kick in sometime in the next couple of days. What she will go through then is not something I would wish on anyone. An IV fluid drip will be put up tonight and Denise will stay hooked up until this stage ends; probably in 7 days. Taking anything by mouth during this time is almost impossible because it will pass straight through her system. The drip is to counter the inevitable fluid loss that will occur.
Denise's grace under these circumstances is inspirational.
