Platelet Count #5


Little man's count is down to 7,000 this week.  (Enter sad momma face here.)  So, new plan... if it's still low in a couple of weeks the doctor says we might need to take a look at his bone marrow just to make sure all is looking ok.  Good news is that we got the go ahead to go on our pre-planned beach trip next week.  She encouraged us to already map out our route to the hospital and take our count with us just in case.  Will do doc!  Collier's 6 month shots are coming up.  Our hematologist would like to see the platelet count be between 25,000-50,000 before going ahead with those.  So, a couple more weeks of waiting, watching, praying and a little bit of beach time in between!

  1. Oh, man, sorry about that. I was thinking of you all on Tuesday and hoping for some improvement. Maybe salty beach air helps platelets? Let's hope so!! Hang in there. Hugs and safe travels!
