As expected, the blood work indicates Sandi is anemic and urgently needs a blood transfusion. After some discussion, it was decided she would go ahead and have the full day chemo deal today like normal. We then went to the main part of the hospital where eventually Sandi had some more blood pulled so they could do the type and match thing.
Tomorrow morning she will have the injection to finish off the fifth round of chemo. Then, we will be sent to the day surgery area so they can do the blood transfusion which will take several hours.
Other than the anemia problem, everything else seems okay though they are double checking some measurements just to make sure.

We'll keep our fingers crossed, remember Sandi in our prayers. Confident she will be alright, she's has one of the best fighting spirits I've ever heard of.
Thank you, Randy. Her spirit is one of the things they all keep praising. Attitude makes a difference especially as sick as she was back when this all started.
What brave people you are. I hope writing about it helps, Kevin.
We are not brave, Patty. Brave folks are our troops, cops, fire fighters, etc.
Umm, must disagree with you, Kevin. There are many different brands of bravery. But, battling serious illnesses is true bravery.
