PROVERBS 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths STRAIGHT.

Day + 97

We had clinic on Monday and Thursday. We have had busy days off trying to fill the boring spots with outings and riding around the area. Amelia said we are practicing for the ride home. She had been doing pretty well. She hasn't had any blood transfusions in a while the last infusion was of platelets and that was on the 22nd of August. Her counts have been doing really well. On last Thursday her counts were 52, we returned to clinic on Friday and they were 51 so we didn't get a transfusion, we went in on Monday and her platelets were 46, still we opted to not do platelets to see what they are going to do on her own, well today her platelet count was 48!! We still didn't transfuse her we will watch her over the weekend and pray that the hemorrhagic Cystitis doesn't rear it's ugly head and drop her counts!! As for her red blood goes she hasn't had a transfusion for those in a longer amount of time Since the 19th of August. Her hgb has been 10.8-10.5 for quite a while now.
We are praying that we have a nice quiet weekend and time to pack and get ready to head home on the 8th!! please pray for this along with her! She is so ready to be home!!
I can't believe it has been 97 days since transplant. I can't wait till this is all but a memory and in our rear view window. I just want to get home and get back into a routine, my poor little Nater is missing his sister terribly, he maybe missing his momma too just a bit!

Well I will let you know what the weekend brings.
Blessings,
Kelly
