I hope that you will be able to get to Iran without much delay. Cytarabine is most commonly used to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) so it does sound like your mother's disease has advanced rapidly. A platelet count of 4 is indeed critical but it is possible for people to survive at that level with good care and a little bit of luck. I wish both for your mother.
Regards,
Ruth
