It's Friday and we are waiting for clinic. He is already scheduled for a unit of blood based on Tuesday's labs. Next week, Thursday to be exact, is our +100 Day benchmark. I want to ask (more like press) what might change at 100 days. My top 2 questions are: do I still have to dip kitchenware in bleach water and do I still have to wipe the dog off every time she comes in from the outside? I think Steven's top 2 are: can I ditch the mask and can we go to Disneyland? I already know the answer to the second question but it's always fun to see their faces when we ask.
HBG is 7.6, good call to order a unit of blood on Tuesday. Steven's triglycerides are now elevated due to the meds so we get to take another medication. It's good to have something else to think about..... Other than that, labs are to be expected, notice I didn't say they are wonderful! We have lowered our expectations and have become more patient with the process. Platelets are still in the normal range, WBC's have again dropped but no one is concerned so I guess it's all good.
We are in the infusion room waiting for the unit of blood to arrive from the blood bank. Steven will be getting another designated donor O+ unit of blood! Thank you thank you!
