Update 12/2/2010

Hi Everyone,

My dad is doing well as his blood cell count numbers continue to decline.  Today, his hemoglobin levels were low (under 8) so he received a transfusion of platelets followed by 2 pints of blood.  The extra fluids should help his numbers increase and give him more energy.  Although his numbers are low-the treatment team expects that by tomorrow or Saturday his numbers will begin to rise.

I will keep everyone posted.

Thanks,
Michelle
