Hey Paula!

Thanks for the update. I'm sorry to hear that your Mom's counts haven't stabilized yet, but that platelet uptick is a good sign. I think hanging in there is pretty much the prescription at this point -- though I wouldn't let that GI bleeding thing go on very long without talking with the docs about it.

I can't imagine that your Mom would be interested in most of the exciting procedures GI docs are known for -- nor would they be likely to do them, given her platelet level.

Take care!

Greg
