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.

    Good point about the family housing programs. One thing to note, even if the hospital doesn't have a housing program or hotel room block, for well-known and common diseases the non-profit for them might know of some. For example, when my grandmother got treatment for her cancer, the hospital told her their family housing was full. But she and my mother stayed in this nice lady's guest house (which was a mansion in its own right) with another two families, also getting care at the hospital, which was within walking distance. They found her by calling the state affiliate of the ACS, and it turns out the state affiliate had a network of people that volunteer their homes to people undergoing cancer treatments.
