Day 1 of AGT treatment

Ok so day one happened yesterday! 1 day down three to go! Things went pretty good and I felt way better than expected. I did develop a case of hives but with the help of benadryl the hives quickly went away and did not return! My hips and legs hurt a lot last night but when I woke up the pain was gone! So I hope that the next three days of treatment go well and are over quickly! The treatment has been known to work fast but everyone is different and it could take more treatments and more blood transfusion before I get better! This is a fairly rare problem and and everyones bone marrow responds differently to the treatment! All in all things are going good and we are staying positive!!! Thank you to all my family and friends and the prayers and fasts on my behalf. Everybody has been great and very helpful!!

    please let me know how you're doing… This is some scary stuff! Her white blood count was zero yesterday very worrisome as the flu season approaches
