Your story, Marlene, is so inspiring. It touches my heart and makes me cry. He persevered and went through so, so much. Bless his heart!
My mother is soon to reach 60 RBC transfusions (in 11 months), which is nothing compared to the amount many have had on here. Her levels were going up, but now they are dropping again. It's such a yo-yo thing now. Before, it was just always super low. She gets teased with rises in blood and then sudden, steep drops. Her neutrophils dropped down to 800 today, but they are still averaging over 1000.
I don't know how many platelet transfusions my mother has had. Her platelets have never improved. That's one line that gets an "F" (lol).
Thank you so much for all of your comments and help. It means so much to me, as you and your husband intimately know the hardships caused by this disease.
