Ellie is in the hospital - #2

Days 2 & 3 at the hospital have been more of the same. When you look at Ellie, she looks great! She is chatty, smiling and pretty active. In person she does not reflect the same child that you see on paper. Some of her blood counts have increased slightly since being admitted, but her ANC has gone down to 516. Unfortunately she also spiked a fever today at 1pm. The doctors would like for her to be fever free for 24 hours before they release her, and to have her counts a little stronger, if possible. So, for now, she stays at the hospital at least until tomorrow afternoon. Thank you for your prayers for Ellie!
