Sunday's News

Kate's still amazing. She's happy & energetic & goin crazy being stuck in a hospital! I can't blame her, we're going a little crazy as well. Her labs from last night showed her platelate level dropped from 145,000 (after her second platelate transfusion) to 95,000. It dropped 50,000 platelates in one day. If her labs in the morning reflect the same thing we know that her body still isn't creating platelates & we'll have to be here for awhile longer. If her platelates only drop, say 10,000, then it might just be the transfused platelates being killed off & she may be creating some here & there. Either way, she needs to have some consistency for a few days before we can leave.

Katelyn was full of energy today, which is great. However, she wasn't hydrating herself or eating nearly as much as yesterday. Hopefully she just wasn't hungry. If it's the same tomorrow I think there might be a little something wrong & they may have to put her back on IV. We'll see. Keep praying for her. Thanks to everyone for their visits, prayers & thoughts!
