Just had a nice chat with Kristina on the phone, which should tell you right away that today is better than the last couple of days. She actually has a voice again! It's definitely faint, and she gets tired and spacey pretty quickly, but she can talk again, which is nice. She said her throat feels much better today and she's only vomited twice all day.
The blood numbers and her doctors both reflect that things might be looking up. Her docs said they think she's at her nadir as far as numbers go, and the new target date for sending her home is about a week from now, Dec. 2nd or 3rd. Let's all say a little prayer for that to happen!
Speaking of those blood numbers, I am happy to report that I have now created charts! I save them as images in an album on Picasa Web, and you can view them right here, or via a link on the left below the donations link.
Please check your calendars again and look for a weekend day in the next few months when you might be willing to do some caregiving at her apartment. There is some training involved, but people are in place to help with that. Leave a comment here or email Kristin at polarbare49@hotmail.com if you have any questions. Thanks!
That's it for now.
