Hi,

My mom will be 81 in December. She is a fighter like no other and is such an inspiration to all that know her. Her WBC are now at 20, hemoglobin just went down to 9.2 after a blood transfusion on Saturday and her platelets are down to 18,000 (platelet transfusions are done daily). Her breathing is very bad. The nurse said it's fluid retention from all the transfusions. We see the oncologist tomorrow. I'm so nervous on what he is going to say. My mom is now a nervous wreck as she can feel that this isn't going in the right direction.
