Infusion clinic.... again

I had an early morning inservice in Traverse City and started calling home when I was done around 11:15. I called in between a few other stops...no answer. I called every 20 minutes or so....no answer. Finally called my neighbor Kris to see if she was home, she wasn't yet, called home again....no answer. About 2 pm, Dave calls me. They drew his blood this morning. Platelets were down to 13,000. Hemoglobin must have been on the low side too. He had been at the infusion clinic from about 11 am for platelets and 1 unit of blood. When I called him last night from Traverse he sounded soooo tired. It usually takes a couple days and he should start feeling better again. Still planing on our Monday departure.

Tonight Tim and Joni brought us dinner. It was so nice to just sit down and eat with friends. Although we've done it often, every time is still so appreciated. Thanks to all who support us. Keep the positive vibes comin'

  1. Hope you're feeling better today, Dave. It takes a special kind of courage to keep your good humor during treatment and all the side effects and to tolerate your pesky friends. But we'll keep coming until you tell us to leave. Love you, the pest
