Playing chicken


We finally had to swerve this morning in this sicko game of chicken we play.  Annie's symptoms from low platelets (bleeding gums, bruising, petechiae...) became so untenable that we had to bring her to the hospital for a transfusion this morning.  Her plt are the lowest recorded value <5000, hmg 7, ANC 540 and we don't know the CSA yet.  Thus she is getting both platelet and hemoglobin transfusions today.  The refuel two weeks ago gave her a pretty good run, and us a bit of a breather, so hopefully that system will work again.  We have a meeting with her medical team Thursday and will report again then.  Thanks for the continued prayers!
