June 29th- I arrived yesterday and Christi was feeling pretty well. We chatted and she took a couple of naps. I ate the most magnificent salad from her tray. Christi is still having difficulty eating and is still on IV nutrition. Blood counts were still at the bottom, so she's receiving blood. We watched The Bachelorette and she was able to stay awake for all but the final rose ceremony. Go figure. Monday night we both got a pretty good sleep as Christi was up only a few times.
June 30th- Still zero counts today, so Christi received donor platelets. We got out of the room and walked downstairs and outside for a little bit and to the gift shop where Christi picked out a cute new purple knit cap. She walked most of the way and finished the trip in the wheel chair. She took a good nap after that and drank a little broth for lunch. At supper time she was able to eat a bowl of cantaloupe and watermelon without any trouble. Yeah!!! We saved the rest in the frig in hopes to make a repeat performance tomorrow. I will go back to Oklahoma City in the morning and will be taking Julia, Christi's youngest, with me for the July 4th weekend. We have big plans with a parade, fireworks, picnic, Rachel's birthday party and a theme park and concert at night. Rachel is excited to have Julia visit.
