Day 165 – Monday 21 June, 2010
After 26 days in hospital, Emily got to go home today!
The stem cell transplant means her immunity will be compromised for the next few months so she is on a multitude of medications. Emily will continue to have frequent trips into the hospital for various tests and medication adjustments.
The next treatment will be surgery to remove both the inactive tumor and her left kidney. This will take place in the next few weeks.
Emily is doing really well. She is very tired and incredibly happy to be home.
The Wooddin’s are now waiting for the arrival of their new baby, due in less than 2 weeks!
Thanks again for all of your support, especially throughout this last round of treatment.
