HGB = 7.1
Platelets - 12
ANC - 1500?
I'm not sure how the ANC can be as high as it was, but that's what they were. Last time they went up they said it was the tail end of the neulasta injection giving its last hurrah. We'll see what they are on Friday. So needless to say Gracie got a transfusion of packed red cells as well as platelets. Much to my surprise they were on their way home at 5:15. She seemed to do well with the transfusions. Although when she got home and was so wired that she wouldn't go to bed I was wondering why low hemoglobin is such a bad thing. I kind of like lethargy, especially at bedtime. Eventually she did fall asleep though. She's scheduled for another platelets transfusion on Friday. Hopefully this will be her last!

We hope it'll be her last transfusion as well. The kids continue to pray that "Gracie will keep both of her eyes," as they have all along - so maybe kids know something that adults don't, or maybe it is just blind faith. Either way, we pray that whatever treatments she has in future will be successful. So, will Gracie nadir and be recovered by the time you head off to Disney World? We're starting to count down the days, so I'm guess you all must be as well. Here's hoping for a good (and healthy) trip for all of you.
Post lots of pics when you get home.
Love,
Lins
