I've got a fever over you...

Actually, we don't know why Margie got a fever last night. Mom and dad went back to the hospital and her white cells were fine but we could just say that she'd had a long strenuous three days, a bone marrow biopsy that same day, skipped lunch and had been on two barbituates. I'd be running a fever too.
So, she went to bed with a normal temp, and woke up with the same normal temp, so we went to breakfast at CJ's (try the sunlight omelete) and then took the 10:30 boat back to the island.

All is good.
The even better news is that
a. It's official that Cathy is up to snuff and has passed the test and can officially be Margie's donor!!!

b. For Margie and Bob next week, it's less about physical tests and more about conferences, nutritionists, care giver information, social workers, etc.

The only exception is that she'll be having a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) next week.

So, that will be a huge break since the last three day's have been very physically taxing and they need much rest.

I think I mentioned before that she has a transplant team. We'll now refer to them officially as the Blue Team (I didn't make that up)
Mom's team consists of:

Margie
Bob
Cathy
Attending Physician
Physician Assistant (P.A.)
Nurse
Scheduler
Nutritionist
Social Worker
Cardiologist
Respitory
Infection Control expert
Pharmacist

Go BLUE TEAM!!
