Elisa wasn't able to get her chemo treatment today - her blood levels were too low. Specifically her white blood cell count - is dangerously low which is common side effect of chemo. The doctor did prescribed a antibiotic to reduce her chances of getting an infection until her white blood cell count rises to normal levels.
Elisa has a blood transfusion scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully this will boost her white blood cell count and restore her energy level. She is scheduled for another chemo treatment next week.
