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…
In the meantime, we wait…and appreciate your endearing support for Irene’s body to heal…
