Merry Christmas eve to one and all. My temperature spiked to 101 overnight, so we're doing more antibiotics and have added blood as well as platelets to the mix because my blood pressure is very low. The blood counts are still way, way down but should start recovering over the next couple of days as my stem cells kick in. Raise a glass of wine to toast you're families, they're the most precious people in the world.
I met with Dr. Weisel and he indicted I have an unidentified bacteria in my bloodstream. If it doesn't resolve, I may have to be on IV antibiotics for the next 10 to 12 days. If they can put a name to it, I may be able to go on oral antibiotics. Here's praying that they figure it out. I have nightmare visions of what Angela,my sister in law,went through.
I read your blog every day. With all the prayers going your way, and on such a holy night, I know good things are in the works for you. Merry Christmas Eve, Robert, to you, Joanie and all your family...
