Well I shouldn’t have said there was NO medical news today. Platelet counts bottomed yesterday and are already back over 60,000 which we take as evidence that engraftment has successfully begun. White counts have perhaps leveled at negligible so we’re back on Neupogen to bring them back. Anemia tolerable. This may be a no-transfusion case.
Of course the bowel will recover at whatever rate it chooses so I’m not in full celebratory mode. However, as with everything else so far I seem to be on a relatively short path to recovery.
Yay! 60k platelets isn’t what I’d like to have, but an upswing of any kind is great news!
60k is more than enough for my current needs but the trend is the real news.
I repeat the refrain..and end with a swelling church chorus of YAY YAY YAY OH YAY! May the trend be with you…also the force.
This all sounds like things are going well….and possibly better than expected. I am so glad… We are still keeping you in our daily prayers and know that God is with you.
Way to go Nancy on the String Cheese events. This is something to look forward to come July. A fun and fabulous Goal….
I will be in the area again today and tomorrow…Just call if you need me to pick up anything and bring it by. Love always…Lor
