Zero blasts, day 7

Christi had a really good day today, beginning with the news that her blasts are still at zero. Early in the afternoon, she was able to drink and eat very small amounts without getting sick, and she was quite pleased with herself!
However, as has been the ritual, her nights aren't quite as good as her days. I'm sure most of you can relate because it's the same with anyone who is sick...the evenings and nights are when fever kicks in, nausea returns, and overall aches and pains seem to enjoy the fact that we're just not going to get much sleep tonight! Bring on the pain/nausea meds!
She did get a special visit from Holli and her boyfriend, Clay, who (per Christi's request) brought a dish of chicken and dumplings! I totally enjoyed sampling the dumplings, but Christi chose to wait until tomorrow when her tummy isn't so rumbly.
Good night, friends...gotta catch a few z's while she's snoozing!
