Hi Everyone,

My body is not coming back like we hoped, but I think it is the best my bonemarrow will do anymore. My wbc and anc are still very low, but my hemoglobin made it over 10 finally.

Anyway I start the carbo on Sat/Sun to see if it will work again. That is if the hospital has a bed for me, I have to have desentized carbo in the hospital. I am not looking forward to the after affects, but keep thinking maybe it won't be so bad this time. And really hoping it works, not sure what we will do if it doesn't. I guess we cross that bridge when we get to it(praying for a bridge). Hugs n Prayers Bonnie

    I'm praying for you, Bonnie....
    I know the "unknown" is the hardest part; but if the carbo worked before, hopefully it'll work again.

    I just want you to know that you are an inspiration to everyone on this site, and we will all be praying for you.

    Love,
    ~Susan xoxo

    Me too!
    Adding my prayers for little allergic reaction and successful cancer cell destruction for the carbo treatment this weekend. Also for any little germs in the hospital to stay away from you. Psalm 121 "The Lord will guard you: he is by your side to protect you...The Lord will protect you from all danger; he will keep you safe. He will protect you as you come and go now and forever."

    adding my hugs
    Bonnie - adding my hugs and well wishes along with everyone else. I hope you carry us with you while you start this thing again. I can only imagine the thought of being back in the hospital is overwhelming after all you went through with your last treatment.

    Take care my friend. You are close in my thoughts.

    Be strong
    Hi Bonnie,

    I hope that by the time you read this, you're in tune with the carbo again, and that it takes you over that bridge you're looking for. I also hope the after effects go easy on you!

    Your courage against this disease is inspirational.

    bald looks good on you
    Thanks! I have another picture that I took recently. I just haven't uploaded it. Hopefully I will do that this weekend and change my picture. I also need to send it to my son and daughter-in-law in Germany.
    I am glad that you are up and around and doing chores. It makes one feel good to do something productive doesn't it? Keep your chin up. Prayers to you. Carol
