Larry called me this morning and said his test showed that his red blood cells were 8.9 which were down a little from Monday but still high enough that he didn't need more blood. His platelet were 0.2 again so he needed another platelet transfusion. He talked with his protocol nurse and she said he should be seeing a slight rise in his blood counts in a few days. He is hoping that on Friday that his counts will be up enough so he can sneak home for the week end. He is getting so home sick he can't hardly stand it. I just hope that he doesn't come home if his counts are still too low even though I would love to see him.
