Hi Dick, yes your right, but I noticed with plateletes somewhat improved she still seems to bleed even in small needle pricks. I just was thinking that there maybe a cuncurrent problem that does not let the plates do their job.

Hi Helen, thanks for your interest and concern in Nellies status. She required more plates yesterday and today again. Reds dropping again, with the whites holding. Dr Morris wants to let her go home for a few days on Monday. Then by Thursday or Friday back in the hospital to start the heavy chemo. Nellie spent time with her daughters today and her youngest grandchildren. Monday the oldest three grandchildren and our great grand baby will be at the house, and spend a few days with us.

Nellie is resigned to the fact that her chances are small, but not giving up hope. I would like her to have these next few days be good ones enjoying her children. Please keep on praying.

Eli
