A Sandi Update

Sorry for posting this so late, but I had to feed folks when we finally got home.

Sandi's blood work was very bad today with some of her worst numbers ever since she was first diagnosed on Thanksgiving Dad 2011. This was especially in terms of her red blood cells. Since Thursday her levels have gone off a cliff and she is in free fall for no reason. She was so low she was at life threatening levels. Meds were changed with a couple dropped, a couple added and then we were sent over to main hospital for a blood transfusion.

While they got her admitted in record time---less than ten minutes---it took another three hours before she actually started getting any blood. She finally got two units of blood. As the sun was setting on the Dallas skyline we were finally sent home this evening.

Chemo for Thursday and Friday has been canceled. We see the doc for the usual visit and blood work. If she does not show any improvement they will --at the very least--transfuse her with two more units again.
