Thank you so much for responding. That is so kind of you!

The hemoglobin can still go up and down for a while (be fickle), but we're hoping she won't need any more RBC transfusions. She is still dependent on platelet transfusions, but we were told that they are sometimes the last thing to come up. It could take several weeks or more to see improvements with them. Her neutrophils range anywhere from 500-1100 (average about 900).

I sincerely wish you health and happiness, Hopeful.
