Continuing better
Sherry is getting just a little stronger every day, it seems.
More shots to boost her white and red blood cells are coming as needed.
She will have tests soon: an analysis of her bone marrow (they punch a small hole in the pelvis and extract some fluid) on 9/13 and a pretty comprehensive MRI on 9/15. She sees the hematologist a week later on 9/22 to discuss the results. We're hoping to hear that she's in full remission.
She feels fine, but tires easily.
Her fingers and legs are slowly recovering the feeling she lost as a neurological effect of the chemotherapy. She's walking pretty well, but not quickly.
