Shaina's mom says,
Shaina update: She still sleeps a lot & can't talk, eat or drink. The swelling in her face seems to be getting better. Overall she's doing good. Hopefully in about 6 days we will start to see signs that Kaylee's marrow is ingraphting (starting to grow).

This post was from Tuesday
Last night was the first night she didn't throw up in the last 4 nights, but she threw up yesterday afternoon at least it wasn't both (like the day before). She's had 4 platelet transfusions since transplant. Today she's getting her first red blood cell transfusion (that takes 4 hrs). Overall she's doing good.
This post was from this morning
today is a good day. Shaina's Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) is 290. Once its 500 thee days in a row we get discharged and will be staying at the Ronald McDonald house...it's still a far cry from home, but one step closer:) Keep up the good work Shaina.

Hello as of August 12 Shaina update: her ANC dropped to 230:( Not sure how she will feel today. She's still sleeping.
Tuesday, August 13 Yesterday wasn't the best Shaina ended up get sick a couple of times yesterday & was very tired. They have been weaning her morphine, because her mucositis (mouth sores) are almost gone. Today her ANC is 250 (slightly up from yesterday). We are hoping today will be a better day. She's up & watching TV... Mostly waiting for her daddy to get here;)
Thursday, August 15 For those sending Shaina a card or care package it might be best to start using our home address (which has been forwarded to the Boston Ronald McDonald House). Jess(Shaina's Dad)is currently staying there & we are hoping to be out of the hospital in the next week or so (and it seems to take a long time for the mail to get to us at the hospital). Our home address is 699 Minister Brook Rd Worcester VT 05682. THANK YOU so much for sending things to Shaina.
hugs to you all

Hi all. Prayers are continuing! Keep strong. May I please have Shaina's last name to send a package? You can email it to me. Judy did but I mailed a card and deleted the address With the last name. Thank you.

Hello,
I understand there has been some confusion about the street number in the original posting being different from the one in this last post. I would guess that since I just copy and pasted the post this last one is the correct one. Our mailman Brian knows who Shaina and her family are so he would make sure she received the mail. He is very good about sorting the mail regardless of the real address. If by some fluke the mail was delivered to the wrong house the neighbor would drive it up to the right house.

August 17.. Hello everyone,
The following two posts are copied from Shaina's mom's Facebook page.
From Saturday August 17 Today was a pretty good day. Shaina was able to be unhitched (from meds & nutrition) four a couple of hrs. Still trying to figure out the cause of her rash. ANC is 320...YEAH BABY! Keep it coming:)
Monday, August 19 Guess what today's ANC is......740. That's what I'm talking about. If things continue we should be at the Ronald McDonald house by this Thursday....YEAH BABY!!

Great news everyone! Shaina and her mom have joined her dad at the Ronald McDonald house. She has been sprung from the hospital. She still has an IV that her parents have been taught to manage. I think they need to stay near the hospital for a couple of more months.
Hugs to you all.

Good evening everyone,
Shaina was out for a day and a half and then had bad stomach pain so she was re admitted. They are adjusting her medication and her mom is hoping to be released again tomorrow.
