Geez, can we get a break??

After Sunday, which took most of the day( my poor daughter sitting down at the clinic), they got home around 3:30. It was just one bag of platelets. So then even with that his nose bleeding got worse and worse. Some doctor called at 7:30 and said, you need more , your numbers just went to 25. Not good enough and hemoglobin down to 7.6. so either ER or if the clinic can take him. So why didn’t they figure that out to begin with and give him the 2 bags?? It’s ridiculous.

So he had very bad night which means I had a very bad night and ended up on the couch trying to sleep. He called right away in the morning and was able to get a 9:30 appt. It was unclear if they could do both blood and platelets. What a complete joke. Why are they not being proactive in this matter? I mean he’s down there on Sunday and has to turn around and GO BACK the next.

Anyway, being Veterans Day, traffic was light and he got there at 9:30. I left to come home. It was ALL day. My son went and got him at 4:30. Since it was so late he decided to spend the night and go to work from here.

So today is Tuesday, I have my labs and then I’m coming back home. I just can’t take going out again. AND especially since tomorrow, he has a physical appt back down at clinic with the doctor. I am going to be blunt about no chemo next week. He needs at least another week to recover. Hopefully, my labs are ok at least for now with all this stress. They went up last time so is that a trend or just another anomaly?

Besides that, it rained so hard yesterday coming out of Sacramento I almost pulled off the freeway to wait it out but figured I could get ahead of it in the foothills which I did. By the time I got to Newcastle, it was only a drizzle. Geez, what a stress factor.

Well, hopefully, today is a better day and there are no surprises. 🙂
