Call it an extreme YO YO or call it an extreme ROLLER COASTER ride but whatever you call it, Irene’s really struggling today. The nausea is RAGING at 9+ following dialysis today. She’s tustling and longing for that comfortable position.
Hoping for that better tomorrow…and leaning into her favorite verse:
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22-23
Thanks for caring,
Dave
8.4
That’s Irene’s red blood cell count. It should be 12+.
She’s been on high levels of Epogen for weeks. They increased the dosage today and she’ll probably have a blood transfusion next Wednesday if the numbers don’t trend upward. The lower red blood cell count has a HUGE impact on her energy level.
The nausea is RAGING following dialysis treatment today.
