Back on the apherisis machine today, but this time on an out-patient basis. The treatments are done at the Unity Ambulatory Infusion Center located in St Mary's Hospital. The process is still under the control of the Red Cross, so the only changes are the location and that she gets to go home after each three hour treatment. Alyssa is scheduled for apherisis treatments on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Alyssa enjoyed her first full day at home on Sunday. Sleeping in her own bed and enjoying all the comforts that are found in your own home brought her a much needed "emotional lift." Her care was great at Unity Hospital, but you just don't get much rest with all the activity going on around you. While there are no nurses or doctors in our immediate family, we are able to provide a different level of care that when combined with her medical team's expertise will hopefully help Alyssa get back her good health.
Tomorrow is a dialysis day. We'll update on Tuesday night.
Thanks
