T+12 FREEDOM!!!

My counts stayed up, I didn't run a fever over 100.5F, and I am GOING HOME TODAY!!! I'm so happy I'm not quite sure what to do with myself. Things have been kinda crazy busy this morning because the doctor didn't come by for rounds until 10:00, which is pretty late. I won't actually get out of here until late this afternoon, but in addition to getting to go home, they are taking the central line out this morning!!! YAYAY!!! I have liked having it in, because it makes the IVs and stuff easy, but now that I should only need a few more blood draws, I'm ready to get rid of it. The two dongles that hang off it are pretty annoying after awhile, especially during sleep. I don't know how may times I've rolled over in my sleep and the dongle has poked me waking me up.

Anyway, very exciting news and seeing as I haven't even started packing, I have to cut today's note short. I'll keep posting during my follow up. TTFN, T
