Today Ally got radiation at 7:30 AM and left the hospital at 3:00 PM!
Yesterday they took a blood sample and Ally's counts had dropped, dropped, dropped! She received some red blood cells today (those take about 3 hours) and was sent home with a lot of literature about her upcoming new meds. Her daddy and I still have to look through that to see what it is all about. There is talk about GCSF again (which is an injection in her leg to stimulate white blood cells); if this happens it won't start until after radiation.

I was told Ally was super good at the hospital today. She gets her own, private room in the cancer clinic (mostly because she is still in quarantine) and she has her own bucket of toys, which mysteriously keeps getting more and more toys!

We are looking forward to an uneventful weekend and feeding her all day, whenever she wants to eat!
