Niamh has had an ok day today, a bit tired and grumpy at times but on the whole ok. Her blood counts are starting to go down, but her white cells and neutrophils are still ok so far. She has just had a blood transfusion as her haemoglobin was nearing 8.
Chemodrugwise, she's had vincristime, cyclophosphamide and etoposide. Quite a lot in one day really.
We have been keeping her on very low amount of food to avoid too much sickness. So far she has only been sick once (about 15 mins ago).
She was actually weighed yesterday and she was 15.4kg which seems quite a lot as she was 14kg when diagnosed two months ago.
She does seem in pain every now and then but hard to know where the pain is and she won't say. As she tends to get over it within a few minutes she hasn't had any painkillers.
So the plan is still for us all to be home tomorrow evening on time for Father Christmas. It would be lovely but let's wait and see.
