Back from the Dr. I'm not really sure how my mom accomplishes these trips 5 times a week. I guess having -2 degree weather wasn't much help.
There are a few things going on for those of you that wish to click around and figure out what it all means. His platelets are low, which is a common problem for chemo patients. This makes him more susceptible to bleeding, and along with his coumadin issues it is a real concern.
Here is where I need some Christmas wishes. Dad is scheduled for another appt. on Christmas eve. However you can contribute.....lets hope that the tests done on that day don't mean that he will have to go to the hospital on Christmas. Granted...I would rather he be wherever he can be best cared for, but the Christmas spirit around the house is running a little low.
Thanks for your comments, well wishes, and prayers. I have been reviewing the visitor list here with him and I know if helps keep his spirits up.
