Strange day today, Niamh had a temperature when she woke up this morning. It was above 38 degrees c as we were having breakfast so we called hospital and they said to bring her in. We spent a good part of the day in a tiny room in A&E: Niamh, Emilie Helene and I. After a good 4 hours Niamh's temperature started to come down a little. The oncology consultant decided that seeing as Niamh has a little cold ad there was nothing worrying in her blood counts we could go home with strict instructions to bring her back if here temperature spiked again. They would also call us if the microbiologist found anything he could grow from her blood.
So we did get to go home and enjoy the end of the afternoon, the weather didn't quite hold out for a barbecue, so we cooked sausages inside instead. Niamh has been great all day, very happy and trying to join in, she struggles sometimes but 7 days after surgery that's fair enough. This evening her temperature is right down so we all have our fingers crossed that she will stay at home for the weekend and Nany and Mike's visit.
