Stressful day!!

Brody is still having high temps and is not eating, so they have put him on nose feeds again. He has been vomiting up his meds but today has held them down, well so far!

He had a good morning with his Nanna coming to visit and she gave him lots of great DVD's.

Two of the doctor's from the Transplant team come in and told us that yesterday's results, found that Brody has some sort of infection in his cells and the cancer hasn't taking over. What this means, i don't know!

After that the day just got really stressful as i was worried about other issues in my life and i could not get rid of the stress. I also was thinking about what the doctor's said and couldn't understand how they would be very worried and tell me all this stuff and then it to be just an infection. I went down to the clinic and asked to see the head doctor, that normally See's us.

She come up to the our room this afternoon, and told us that she was happy, that the cells have shown that they are grouping together to fight some sort of infection, they don't know what. But still have to wait for the real tests. She believes the results of the test will show the same as the last bone marrow, which that the cancer is still there but we can hopefully treat it with the GVHD and hopefully kill it that way, but its not taking over as yet.
But she is happy!!

Well now i am totally confused, and glad she is happy now, as i am still stressed and why did she tell us all that stuff before, why didn't she say its more likely an infection but could be the other but we will talk about that once the results are in. Why give me so much stress and worry? Its funny, as this whole year that's what has happen, as when we got put into hospital, they would not even mention the word cancer until they had the results. So now i have no idea what to expect from the doctors.

They also told us we can't leave the hospital because of his high temps, but we can have a gate pass this weekend in between his medications. Well Brody and i will love that, as its relax time and out for a good meal. Yeah!!!
