Danny my son and the home nurses and docs have been great - they are following all this closely but I didn't want to take a transfusion so am trying to get my blood count back up. Glad the surgery and hospital part are over. Can't want to get back into Playpal-ing again. I look at my Shirley standing here in the den a lot and have during this past week! Miss you and our emails and all so much. Am off to some couch time and then will try to get back on later. I thank you all so much for all those prayers - they saw me through some tough days.  |
Oh you poor baby.....you really should get consider getting transfused. I had both knees replaced and needed blood after both surgeries. The first one, I was home and feeling so weak and sick...it was awful. I was almost passing out in the shower and short of breath all of the time. My Hgb was 8 ... way too low. I can tell you that I felt amazing afterwards!
So sorry you are having a rough time of it.
