Dave and I got to the clinic for lab about 9 am. Dave coughed up blood a few more times and by 8 am had a bloody nose again. Hemoglobin is 9.7, platelets 13,000. MD decided to give him another unit of platelets since we were heading out today. Infusion clinic here we come. Got there by 10:00 am and left about 11:50. Dave was pretty weak this morning. BP still 90's / 60's. Erik and Al were there when we got home. Mom was getting settled in to watch the dogs and cat while we're gone. I finished packing, wrote a quick note on the blog and we were on the road about 1 pm. Stopped by Best Buy to get a cable for the iPod and off we go. The cable was messed up, stopped at Battle Creek Best Buy to exchange it and now we have CDs and iPods to listen to. I drove to about 50 miles before Cleveland and then Erik finished up the first leg. Dave's in bed...exhausted. Tomorrow we go to Secaucus, NJ. Stay tuned.
