Joy!
Hemorrhaging came to a slow halt following dinner last night. I took advantage of some pain meds and some Atavan last night to help me sleep and that worked wonderfully.
The peripheral line in my arm is also working quite well. And my white blood count, with the help of the hard core antibiotics, has fallen back to an acceptable range.
They are still planning to give me more blood products today to hedge their bets. And so I want to thank any of you from the bottom of my heart if you've ever donated blood.
Literally, Blood Donation Does Save Lives.
My dad has been a mega gallon donor all his life and my three children have followed in their Pap's footsteps and become donors as often as the time restrictions allow.
I could not be more grateful and forever proud of all of them.
The Docs should be making rounds here shortly so I'll let you know where we're headed.
Thanks for checking on me.
