Day 21

Another great day. Tessa is holding strong with her counts. She's eating better, cheddar cheese, goldfish, watermelon, bananas, oranges, and Swedish Fish are among her favorites. The only hiccup is that she has tested positive for HHV6 which is one of 4 viruses that are tested for 2x a week in transplant patients. She tested positive for this once before and was given IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) which is basically a concentration of antibodies that is extracted from the plasma of like a thousand donors. After getting IVIG last time the HHV6 went away. She'll be getting another dose tonight in hopes that it will have the same effect.


Was going to attach a couple of videos, but apparently it's not going to work and I don't have the patience to dicker around. So... short blog tonight.
