I am writing this at nearly midnight. Currently we are at home and Catherine's temperature has hit 38 degrees. We are waiting an hour to check her again, but it looks like we'll be having another stay in hospital with Catherine on intravenous antibiotics. She is not in any distress and doesn't look flushed, but if her temperature hits 38.5 degrees then we are definitely on our way. Oh, how miserable. She will not like being woken up...
She had her chemotherapy drugs today - Doxorubicin and Vincristine - and this went well. She has a small number of neutrophils but is still susceptible to infection at this stage. On the way to the hospital, she suddenly piped up 'Mummy, when will I be better like all my other friends'. It looks like she has realised that her life is a bit different to her friends' lives at the moment.
Prayers would be welcome. Please pray that the infection is only minor and can be easily solved, and that her temperature comes down. Thankyou.
