white count dropping.....
My Dad's white count is dropping, and they expected it to go up with his pneumonia. His platelets went up to 177, which led the hematologist to suggest that the one treatment of Vidaza has worked for him. The bad news is that the hemoglobins and whites are low. He is getting blood today, and I hope they start him on nuprogen soon. The family doctor kind of depressed us this morning with the news that his whites are down to 1.6. I guess the antibiotics alone can't beat the pneumonia alone; they need help from the rest of his body. He has lost a good deal of weight as well. I'm just praying he can fight the pneumonia off and go from there. Please Pray for us as I do for everyone fighting this disease.
