The magic number of 500

Well Alyssa has finally hit the magic number of 500 for her nutrafills.  The doctor just left and said that she is finally making the good stuff.  She has started taking her off some of her antibiotics.  Tomorrow they will take her off some more and see what her body does.  Her number for her heart was too high today so she is not having arsenic today.  The doctor also told her she can go outside every day if she wants to. 


Her spirits are so much better than before.  I think that she can see the light and the end of the tunnel.  I suspect when she gets released we will come up here everyday and they will do a ekg and then see if she can have the arsenic or not.  I am sure when she starts doing the treatments on a out patient basis it will be an all day event but then she can go home at night. 

Hopefully she will be out of here by the end of the week.  I don't want to get my hopes up but I hope that is what happens.
