Now just to clarify - when I say "done with treatment" it will be the chemo and steroids we'll be done with and the 3 times a day acyclovir tablet as far as I know. The co-trimoxazole (the antibiotic we do twice a week two times a day) will continue for around 6 months as they will wait for her lymphocytes to recover. It is only then that Bianca will be at a lower risk of developing a particularly risky form of pneumonia. Right now her lymphocytes are sitting around 0.22 or something and they'll want it to be above 1 or something like that. And I understand the monthly IVIG transfusions will continue for around 3 months. But no more chemo and no more steroids.
Wow, so incredibly unreal...
