No Go

No Chemo for me today. Between having a nasty little cold and my blood counts being in the crapper it just didn't make sense. I'm getting really anemic (hence the tiredness and the panting when I go upstairs), my platelets are low (no evidence of this yet), my white blood counts are low (probably the reason I came down with this dumb cold). I'm scheduled to go back in on Friday to get blood drawn again. I'm sort of hoping that we can just call it good enough and skip this last round of chemo. Right now it is just wait (rest up) and see.

In other news, after a rugged week or so, Keith's mom seems to be improving! There is even talk of moving her out of the ICU soon. She is in it for a long haul, but we're all happy that things are trending in the right direction. The crazy part is that they still aren't so sure about the underlying cause! There are a couple of possibilities, but her symptoms don't fit either one perfectly. Hmmm.
