Good news for my wife?

Journal by Gaaark

My wife's white cell count has stopped doubling (she thought it was going to be at 60 from 30, but it's only at 45.... So, good news in a way...the next test in 3 months should show better? the progress.

Here's hoping it levels out and just becomes chronic and steady.
Fingers crossed.

    Unfortunately I haven't been able to attend all the appointments because of work or staying home to look after our son while she goes, so I get a lot of my info from her as "the doctor said something about...."

    She's happy it didn't double, but all I know is that he's still concerned, even though it 'seems' to be slowing, so ......................and she's just plain scared.

    Smear: that rings a bell... something about some of her cells being odd shaped...? She's asleep right now.
    Differential....no clue. Maybe we heard a different phrase?

    Reality check: i think I don't want to know too much because I really want it all to be not true and to just stop.
    Not knowing the future really sucks, and not being able to do anything about it but try to be there and listen.

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccc...... Have more questions to ask.
