Happy Easter

Alyssa had a great night.  They changed her pain pump last night to have a continuous stream of pain meds all night.  She slept so much better.  She doesn't seem to have as much mucus today.  She still is having a hard time swallowing anything.  She has to swallow 3 pills that couldn't be converted to iv.  She is getting another bag of platelets right now. 

Hopefully her counts will start to come in tomorrow so she can start the road to going home.  She has to be off the pain pump and nutrition bag in order to go home. 

I hope that all of you had a good Easter with your families.  I am so looking forward to not celebrating anymore holidays in this place!

  1. Dear Alyssa, I am so sorry for all the pain you're experiencing. I hope an pray it is alleviated soon and that your counts start to come up. It sounds like you've had quite an emotionally and physically trying week. It must have been very discouraging to see graduation day come and go. I hope you feel Gods supporting and loving hand in your life. Remember that all these things will be for your good and experience. I'm sure it's hard to take comfort in that as you face this difficult trial. But God truly does do all that He does for a qua purpose that we don't always u.understand. we love you,
    Meghan and family
