3/4's of the Way There!

We went to NIH today for Jim's blood test and evaluation. He was dehydrated once again and his blood pressure low. After a liter of IV fluids, his color was better and his B/P slightly improved so they let him come home. His electrolytes were good, his hemoglobin at 11.4 and ANC (absolute neutrophil count) at 3,610. So he's once more been brought back from the brink! Only 2 more cycles to go! Barbara

  1. Sending more prayers and love to accompany you through the tests next week, Jim. We're off to Paula's until next Wed., but you'll all be very much in our hearts. Good luck. Carol and Fred
