Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

Wife has been admitted to hospital ... again.
Fever last night, temp reaching just shy of 102... but responded well to ibuprofen & tylenol - fever broke, she slept well.
On-call oncologist had her go to outpatient clinic this morning for blood-work.
Floor oncologist (one of wife's regular oncologists!) decided to admit her, based on too-low neutrophil count.

For your enlightenment:
Neutrophil granulocyte
and
Absolute neutrophil count... ("zero" is a bad number)

Good news:
1. We're getting better at recognizing impending neutropenic fever

2. she'll be getting a "chemo holiday".

Aside: We celebrate 29th wedding anniversary tomorrow. We celebrate eight years of "living with cancer" next week. ... that's more than 25% but less than 30% of our married life: living with cancer.
