Hi All,
Well, my mom in in between her 3rd and 4th Onconova treatment. She needed a platelet transfusion today as her platelets dropped to 9,000 from 18,000 on Friday. The platelets have dropped dramatically these past couple of weeks. Her HB is holding since her last transfusion at 10.6. They did drop since Friday from 11.6 to the 10.6. WBC are at 1.3.
She kind of as the defeated look on her face but is trying to look strong for us. Seems that everyday is a new challenge. I don't think that the trial is doing what we hoped, but we will continue to give it a fair chance and to continue to give hope to my mother.
She goes for her 4th treatment next Monday.
