5/19/10 - Update

Kiernan in Charlotte at the moment. Friend Agnes arrives this week. I will arrive on Monday and stay until Friday afternoon.

Mom was supposed to have her second infusion treatment yesterday, but it has been delayed a week because her Absolute Neutropfil Count (ANC) was below the minimum acceptable level. She will receive immune system boosters daily this week until her next schedule infusion appointment on Tuesday the 25th.

Clearly not ideal, though we understand these levels fluctuate for a variety of reasons. We'll hope for the best next time through.

Her days are largely good if she slept well the previous evening, and tough if she did not. We continue to work to figure out how to best position her for a good night's sleep each night.

Love to all, Ted
