Day +8 WBC's have come in!

Today, for the first time since my transplant my white blood cells were above zero. There were 150 of them. This means that my new immune system is starting to work. The Dr.s told me that they will probably hover at this low number for at least a few days. They may even go back to "too few to count", but at least they are coming in! The sooner they come in the sooner I will start to feel better. I still have a bad sore throat and sores in my mouth called mucositis. The heart and lung lining inflammation seems to be resolving.
