Went to clinic today for normal lab work and Jordan was feeling pretty bad. Her counts are way down because of the last chemo, as expected. She has needed platelets a couple of times this week already. She was running a temperature of 100.4 and Dr. Rossbach wanted to admit her because her counts were so low. He left it up to her and she decided to go ahead and get admitted because she figured she would hit 100.5 over the weekend.
About an hour later, while waiting for the platelets to come to the clinic, her temp went to 100.7, so she would have been admitted regardless on Friday. We were glad she at least got to spend 10 nights at home after the chemo.

About Jordan
I was diagnosed with CML (Chronic Mylogenous Leukemia) on Feb 6, 2006. I had a bone marrow transplant on June 14, 2006. My donor was unrelated and to this day we do not know who he is and have not had a chance to thank him for his very selfless act of saving my life. We share this story in hopes it will help raise awareness about childhood cancer and the importance of becoming a bone marrow donor.
