Update From Dave
San Francisco is “buzzing” with the Major League All Star Baseball game being played this evening at AT&T Park! My cousin, Tom Dias and his son, Tom, visited Irene and me today before going over to the “yard”!! Tom Jr. also donated blood before leaving UCSF .....
Irene’s blood counts:
| 5-Jul | 6-Jul | 7-Jul | 8-Jul | 9-Jul | 10-Jul | |
| WBC (White blood Cells) | 9.2 | 8.6 | 8.4 | 7.5 | 8.5 | 6.8 |
| Neutro | 6.8 | 6.5 | 6 | 5.2 | 6.3 | 4.8 |
| HCT (Red Blood Cells) | 30 | 31.5 | 31.4 | 30.7 | 30.2 | 30.2 |
| Platelets | 42 | 86 | 43 | 41 | 53 | 35 |
| T.bil (Bilirubin) | 7.6 | 8.6 | 10.1 | 11.8 | 12.5 | 13.4 |
We’re obviously hoping the Bilirubin counts will plateau and trend the other way!!! The target Bilirubin level is 1.5. Irene is also getting blood platelets (almost daily) to maintain a target level of 40. She is less nauseated today, but still not able to ingest/digest any food…
Irene is encouraged to learn of JoAnna’s website being launched and wants to encourage everyone to visit the site!
In the meantime, we wait…and appreciate your endearing support for Irene’s body to heal…
Dave
