Numbers Update
By Margot | June 17, 2008
Wohoo! VMA 9.5 (down from 12) and HVA 15 (down from 46) Isn’t perspective funny? Six months ago I would have had a heart attack at 15 HMA and now I’m happy as a clam. Celebrating actually. Red blood is down to 8.3 and with one more day of irrino we may slip below 7.5 on our vacation. Dr. Willert thought we’d be fine and on our way back up so we did not do a Spencer Dolling recreational transfusion. I hope we don’t regret that. Beth (our friend the nurse) gave me a 3/4 inch needle should I decide Sam needs a transfusion in New Mexico. The good news is that we happen to know a nurse, Erin Johnson, in Santa Fe whose daughter Maddie is an NB survivor so I can call in the troops if I need.  White Blood is 3.5 ANC 1900, Platelets 197. All down considerably but everything holding it’s own except for red blood. Will update with vacation stories soon.

There’s a pretty efficient LabCorp on the southwest side of Santa Fe, if you need counts done. Have fun!
