Last night was a long night, but by the time I left this morning Emily was feeling a little better. Partly from the codeine and partly from her blood transfusion from last night. The transfusion did bring her pulse down which also let her relax more and get a good night of sleep. She hasn't had a fever for probably 11 hours or so, which is great. I spoke with one of the Oncologists this morning and they are starting to think the leg pain is not from Vinchristine, but might be from the fever and infection she is fighting.
Tracy will be with Emily today while I try to get some sleep. I am working on 4 hours of sleep since Friday morning.

Chris, we were away this weekend and was just catching up on the blog. I am so sorry to hear what you all have been through this weekend. You are all in our thoughts and we are hoping that Emily gets well from this infection quickly. We are sending lots and lots of support your way across the miles. Lots of love.
We are thinking of you guys and sending some good juju your way - here's to no more fever, a chance to get a little air, continued private room, and a quick resolution to this infection.
