Emmah... you're platelets are 8... come'on down.
Emmah's counts are still on the down... perhaps bordering on leveling off at the low point. Things should start going up from here, but who knows when that will be. We already have an appointment to go in on Friday as I suspect that the platelets (along with her RBC) will be down... down enough to be in the transfusionable range, but only Thursday's blood draw will tell.
She's still experiencing pain, and that has us concerned as to what the cause is. Since the retention that was a problem about a couple of weeks ago isn't/shouldn't be a factor, then it can only be tumor impinging on something in there.
Right now, we are waiting to hear back from New York to see if the doctor that performed her first resection surgery is willing to have (and no pun intended) another stab at it. Hopefully we should know something this week.
Until the next posting...

At times unwanted, but often are we uncomfortably thrust into living with it. To borrow part of a line from the movie Heartbreak Ridge, "You adapt, you overcome"...
In memory of Emmah ~ KEIYH
A small request... please
I have a small request and it won't take up much of your time.
Now that Emmah's spirit has left her physical body behind and has completed it's journey "home" I would very much like if you could all take a moment and reflect on Emmah... whether you knew her personally or not. Let us know how she touched/affected or made a difference in your life.
I especially would like to hear from those of you who know/knew her, what your fondest memory or memories of her are. Funny stories and what you remember her likes and dislikes to be (no matter what they are) and what word/words you would use to describe her.
In order to keep all of those thoughts in one place, please, please use this link only for this purpose only.
Thank-you
KEIYH
