Daddy just called after visiting Hannah on the way to work this morning, and we got the latest 48-hour platelet results… She went up to 62!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From 41 to 62!!! This is fantastic!! Also, her bilirubin went from 11.x to 6.7! Her liver seems to be functioning better finally!! I know we aren’t supposed to totally expect this to be “the turnaround” they are hoping for because we need the next panel to see “a trend,” but I will take it! I’m so excited to see this increase!!
They have to wait for the NPs and doctors to make rounds before I can get an update and their reaction to this bloodwork. I also want to know when they are doing the next platelet check, 24 or 48 hours. As much as I would hate to have Hannah pricked again for blood, I really hope it will be a 24-hour check just to see if we are still increasing or if this was just a “fluke.” I know platelets should “jump” up higher than that in this time frame in a regular situation, so we’ll see what they have to say.
Unfortunately, with Edouard’s eye bearing down on us, I won’t be able to get to the hospital today, which really upsets me. But, Daddy and I both agree it is better to keep A & E home from camp with me since Hannah is actually the safest one of all of us. E’s camp was actually cancelled today, and since A is home on Tues-Thurs anyway, the three of us are going to ride out the storm together. I’m not too worried since it is weakening, but I just WISH I could make it to the hospital at least once today … maybe tonight if things calm down, but we’ll see. At least DH got to see her this morning and give her kisses for me.
But I just have to relish in the fact, her platelets are up to 62!!!!!!!!!
