First, just wanted to say what a great morning we had on Saturday with Tami's shower at the hospital. A couple of us come early to help get Cindy spruced up a little, and we all had a great time!! It was hard for her when we all left, but the hospital chaplain that has been so faithful and caring was there to visit and pray with her after we left. We are so thankful for him, he is there almost everyday.
Cindy says thank you also for all your emails. Cindy has them laying right by her and has read them all several times. Please keep emailing, she appreciates it so much!! It really helps to keep her connected to the outside world and also helps to pass the time.
She also now has all her staples out. They took out every other one on Saturday, and yesterday they took out the rest. That feels so much better!!
On Saturday her headache started to come back a little but not sure why of course. Yesterday her blood test resutls came back and her platalate(sp?) count had dropped from around 400 a couple days ago to 52 yesterday. This morning it was down to 40, so she is getting a blood transfusion yet this morning. They will test again after the transfusion and hopefully it will be up. They are not sure what is causing this drop, could be the antibiotics or the blood thinner she was on for a few days after surgery. If it isn't higher afterwards they said it could possibly be her spleen causing some problems. So she now has another set of doctors working with her watching the blood details, and this puts her up to 6 groups of doctors. With all the doctors that she has, they should be able to get her back on her feet.
She just wasn't feeling well yesterday and didn't look as good either. Her eyes weren't as clear so then you know the headache is a problem again, but not bad.
Please continue to keep Cindy in your prayers. Her body is just so weak and she does get quite discouraged. She wants to be home with her family so badly and enjoy the summer with them instead of the hospital.
Thank you again for all your prayers, support and emails!
