Stem Cells Harvest - Day 2

Hoje o dia passou lento, foram 8 horas na cama coletando as celulas. O Chico esteve la me fazendo companhia e tentando entender o processo com os medicos e enfermeiras. Como a contagem das celulas nao foi suficiente (resultado das quimios anteriores), terei que repetir esse procedimento ate atingir o numero necessario, o que esperamos seja amanha pra logo comecar a quimio na quinta. Entao estamos um pouco atrasados, mas dentro das probabilidades que estavam previstas. Amanha mais um dia no hospital, tomara que tudo saia bem e passarmos para o proximo passo.

Beijos

Today the day was really long, 8 hours collecting cells. Chico went there to make me company and try to understand the whole process with doctors and nurses. As the quantity of cells collected wasn't enough (due to previous chemo), I will have to repeat this again and again until we complete the amount of cells needed, which we hope will be done by tomorrow so we can start chemo on Thursday. We are a little bit late on the schedule, but this is still part of the probabilities that we could expect. So tomorrow will be one more day at the hospital, I hope everything will be fine so we can move on to the next step.
