Thanks for the words of encouragement

Briggita;
Yes - we had a wonderful time. When Chicago played 'Color My World', Earl asked me to dance - and of course I said yes. It was the bridal song we danced to at our wedding 41 years ago. There were tears streaming down my face, and it was a very special moment.
Then, back to reality - knowing that he had to go to hospital on Friday for the platelet transfusion - and knowing that he is due for another 2 units of blood on Tuesday. Should have actually had it on Monday, but the infusion lab is having some work done to it, and short stay was too crowded with other procedures.
Briggita - I know you have done a lot of research - and is this type of blood loss that he has been going through - 10 units in 20 days - a bad sign? Please be honest with me - the uncertainty is harder to deal with than the reality. Thanks
Beth
