Day +21

Short post: just more of the same.

She's not yet engrafted--they were right in their expectation that Zoe's osteopetrotic bones with narrow bone marrow cavities would take longer to "take."

The continued low platelets (hanging out at less than 5) is taking its toll; her tongue is bloody and oozing. At least, the nurse told me, she doesn't have a non-stop bloody nose like some patients get with chronically low platelets.

The music therapist came again today while I was out on a walk (darn!). Apparently she recognized the guy's voice immediately and got a big smile on her face. Jeff said that Zoe immediately picked up her drum stick and waved it around when he started to play.

Did I mention that I believe my daughter to be brilliant?

Thanks to everyone who has tried to set us up with musicians. I've got some good leads, now I just have to figure out how to schedule people.
