Thank you all for your kind words and prayers. They are much needed.
Doug had more platelets on Monday. The platelets are not holding very long at all now. The blood transfusion from last week does seem to getting him through. He even raised his hg to 10 by himself! But it was back down to 9.6 at the time of the platelet transfusion. We are very grateful that it is not more often for now. He is in WI now and I am in IL.
Meanwhile, I am at the hospital with my brother. He seems to be doing better. They are giving him daily radiation treatments to try and shrink the tumor before surgery.
Now, I think my mom has diabetes. She is very anti-doctor but I am taking her kicking and screaming today. She is down to 105 pounds and is constantly drinking all the water she can get her hands on!
Thanks, as always, for letting me vent! I don't know how much thinner I can be stretched
