ER Again

Sierra has done so well this time around avoiding a fever, though I didn't allow myself to get my hopes up that we wouldn't end up in the hospital with low counts. She has been feeling pretty good, but her mouth sores are starting to make an appearance, so going in to the hospital is actually going to be a benefit to her. She will be able to be on IV nutrition, since she is definitely not eating enough calories(only weighs 30lbs now), and will be able to be on IV pain meds when the sores hit their worst. She is running a fever of 101.3' now, so we are waiting on the doc to call us back and tell us to head into the ER. Hopefully it wont be a terribly long stay, and her counts will start to recover in the next few days, I am sure she is at rock bottom now, and will be needing some transfusions over the next couple of days anyways.
