Hi MaryAnn, You MADE it home just as planned and sound like your doing pretty good all things considered. In fact your platelets are BETTER then mine. LOL Your on a roll girl...whoo hooo.
I laughed when I heard how happy your dog was to see you. When I was in the hospital for 10 days due to low ANC count...I could NOT wait to get home to see my two kids. (Which are my dogs in this case.) I MISSED them SO MUCH it wasn't funny. But in your case...you have your real kids and your dog. Your dog must of been spinning around in circles and all over you. They are ALWAYS so happy to see you. Don't you just love it. The simple things in life.
I am so thrilled to hear your at home with your family and get to sleep in YOUR OWN bed. Now isn't that nice!
I wanted to echo what Ronda already said...I too hope you can find a donor SOON and you can MOVE on and forget about all this.
Hey...have I told you this lately? Your so darned AMAZING! You have a wonderful 4th of July week with your family. You got home just in time...YEAH! I am so happy for you.
May God continue to bless you.
I am sending your warm & healing thoughts.
Chelee
