Typical

Alright, so I was supposed to get my last treatment yesterday, but of course that didn't happen lol.  I'm so used to it by now it doesn't even bother me anymore :)  Anyway, my platelets went down from 80 last Friday to 61 yesterday morning.  Dr. Harker said, "Celeste, I do not understand your body...."  haha  I love how I still surprise him even though I always do this dance.  In other words, I'm consistent with myself, just not with everybody else lol.  So we'll try treatment again next Tuesday.

Meanwhile......my hematocrit was low (25), so they FINALLY decided to give me some blood!  I've been feeling lightheaded for the past week, so it was nice that Dr. Harker finally signed two transfusion orders.  So my mom and I went to IMC to type and cross for my blood orders.  But then we had a few hours to kill before they would receive the blood from Red Cross.  Hmmmm.....whatever were we going to do with all that time........go to the movies!!!  haha We went to Sandy Movies 9 and saw The Help.  Good movie!  I recommend it!  So then we went back to IMC and I got my blood, and my mom and I took a nap on our favorite bed in our favorite room and I watched part of The Grinch with Jim Carey.  It was great :)  And thanks to the blood I am feeling much better today. 

I'll let you all know how next week goes.  Thanks for all of your support and prayers!
