DAY 7: THURSDAY

January 29, 2009: Jill coughed all night. She had three breathing treatments during the day that seemed to help, but only for a little while. This afternoon, two infectious disease doctors came in to examine her and new blood tests were ordered. They are trying to make sure that she has not contracted a viral infection. It may just be her asthma out of control, or her MS. In spite of coughing all night, she did have more energy than yesterday. Her counts have basically not changed, but it is normal for them to stay low until the new stem cells engraft. I hope she has a better night's sleep tonight. Her cough reminds me of when she was little and had bronchial asthma and coughed all night. It also sounds just like Adele's did too.
She was able to video chat with Mark, Nina, & Isabelle tonight. That made her very happy.
Love to all,
Doreen
