Well here goes i always read the posts on this site but post mainly on NRSA site as i have both Emphysema COPD and PsA . I am looking after my daughter who has recently had Stem Cell Replacement. She has Host verses Graph fight going on. She also has a respiratory infection . I am on my second course of anti biotics not sure who gave what to who . The only thing is when her husband is at work i take over,I take her hospital for blood tests once sometimes twice a week. Also go and chat with her for a while and do her lunch . Hopefully as the weeks go on she does more for herself.

Sending everyone Hugs.

Chris

Thanks just been talking to her as she has just got home from last hospital visit. She has had plateletts as well as magnesium. They have also said that they are giving her plenty of anti biotics.

Thanks everyone for replies, i've spoke to my daughter this morning to see if she needs anything before going down to her. She is much the same and we decided just to talk on the phone as she can now make tea and do a sandwich for herself. Thats a big improvement. She was told yesterday by the group of people who look after her in the out patients department in Bone Marrow, that Swine flu is about again this year so to make sure all she comes into contact with have had the Flu Jab. We have but we still dont know if its her who infected me so no contact till I'm over this infection, but for driving her for blood test. Hopefully mine will be gone by Monday.

Sending you all hugs and try to stay out of danger. XXX
