Blood draw today, appropriately Thanksgiving Day with results to be thankful for. Slowly the numbers are creeping up. Whites 0.69 & Neutrophils 0.40. The highest they've been. And this is a good thing! It also seems I've been holding both the platelet transfusions and the red blood transfusions maybe a day or two longer than I previously have. In fact, a platelet transfusion and a red blood transfusion we planned for tomorrow could probably wait until Sunday. However for safety reasons we will schedule both for Saturday now. Wow. Although in extremely minute increments, I now feel that there is indeed a slow progression forward. For this...and so very much more...I am both grateful and thankful. I reserve a very special soft fuzzy place in my heart for Bruce my donor....and for ALL my priceless caregivers that nurture and support me. XO
I pray that all of you have equally precious things that you too are thankful for on this day = )
To Life.
Cheers.
