First off, thanks to everyone for sending birthday cards to Ava! It made the little girls birthday to get a lot of birthday wishes like her older sister.
Ceil and I went in for her normal treatment today. She has been feeling weak again, having trouble getting up the stairs at home and developed a cough and had some nausea which continues. We let the Doc know in the appointment about the symptoms and she ordered a blood test which we needed regardless after being off of the radiation.
The good news is her white blood count is back up. The bad news is her red blood count is down which requires a blood transfusion tomorrow. It's an all day affair at Hartford Hospital. We'll be there first thing in the AM and out by quitting time.
It just another obstacle that life has thrown at us. My hope is that after the transfusion, Ceil gets some needed energy back and loses the low-grade nausea feeling I'll let you know when she's out and that everything is better.
Prayers please - Thanks!
