Today!

The road conditions slowed us down a bit, but we made it to our appointment in Wenatchee only a couple minutes late. We had to play the waiting game because we were double booked, but we finally got the blood draw and the doctor visit. Platelets had continued going down ( at 11 today ) so Terry got a platelets transfusion. Did you know that platelets are yellow? They are! We do not know his counts after the transfusion, but we're sure it's better or they wouldn't do it.

Dr. Smith is still concerned with what is causing the counts to be so low and said she was going to call over to SCCA and suggest that we go over for a visit / work up. We don't know what will happen for sure, but might learn more on Monday, at our next appointment. We'll continue to keep you posted.

We got home just in time to gather with family for Idris' 90th birthday. We had a great visit and great food. That reminds me - I haven't gone thru and put all of the family birthday's on posts for the year. I better get a move on!
