Hi everyone:
After receiving several rounds of chemo, platelets, whole blood and plasma, Kathleen was finally given the blessing to leave the hospital last night. She needs to see her oncologist on Tuesday, and will have to give samples of her blood twice a week to see if any progress is being made on her blood counts and platelets. Patty received blood test results throughout Kathleen's hospital stay; based on what we saw, little or no improvement was being made, although this could change as her body recovers from the effects of the chemo.
As of last night, she seemed to be tolerating the chemo fairly well, although it was causing her some stomach discomfort. I think the joy of being out of the hospital trumped any other considerations.
I'll provide updates whenever we know more.
Love,
Brian
