6/30/05 - Hannah has settled well into her new room in the transplant wing. She moved there on Sunday and started her 1st chemo drug monday night. She has the 1st drug for 4 days, the 2nd drug for 2 days and the 3rd drug for 1 day. Then she has 1 day of rest before the transplant. THE TRANSPLANT DATE HAS BEEN MOVED TO JULY 6TH!!!! ONE DAY EARLIER THAN EXPECTED. THE SOONER THE BETTER!!! Hannah continues to keep up her spirits. She has started on TPN, it is a nutritional supplement given to help increase her weight. Since being admitted to hospital 5 months ago she has not gained any weight but has grown in height. The nutritional supplement is being given in hopes of adding some fat to her body. As of yesterday her weight is 12.3kg (27lbs) and her height 99cm. Hannah has been doing well so far with this 5th round of chemo. She hasn't had any adverse reactions or side effects. As the days get closer for the bone marrow transplant our prayers go out to Hannah and her family that this will soon be over and Hannah will be back at home where she belongs. KEEP FIGHTING HANNAH!!! THE ROAD TO RECOVERY IS GETTING CLOSER!!!
