Fevers, Transfusions and a New Room

We managed to break the call button in my mom's room yet again.  We broke it last time my mom was in the hospital too.  It couldn't be easily fixed so my mom was moved to a new room.  Last time when my mom was moved to a new room her neutrophils started to go up.  This time although my mom's neutrophils didn't start to go up, we were moved to a much larger room that has a couch.  Yes, that's right I'm no longer sleeping on a chair!  While I slept pretty well on the chair, the couch is heaven.  Oh and the move was also nice for my mom because she has a lot more room to scooter around.

Saturday afternoon my mom started to feel really cold.  She didn't have a fever at the time but then spiked a 101.3 F fever yesterday.  Her platelets had also dropped to 17,000 and because she had been on a blood thinner they decided to give her a platelet transfusion.  Normally after a platelet transfusion my mom doesn't notice any difference but this time I'm happy to report that she felt better.  She was no longer cold and her fever was gone.  Nice work platelets!  Today my mom is feeling pretty good even though her hemoglobin is 7.1.  I predict a blood transfusion in her near future...

  1. Good day everyone, two months ago  I was diagnosed with (urethral cancer), which had caused me a great deal of pain and pressure on my bladder. My doctor insisted that there was no other choice but to go under the knife. So everyday I was online searching for herbal medication. I never want to undergo any surgery. so. I have so many testimonies on how they were healed by dr. Imoloa herbal medication. without wasting time i contacted him (dr. Imoloa). on how to get the herbal remedies. I received the herbal package in less than a month, and I followed the steps and procedure on how I should be taking it. and one months later I was scheduled for an ultrasound check: it was shocking. The cancer had completely gone, I had consulted my doctor and canceled the surgery and with your dedicated counseling guidance I managed to completely treat the urethral cancer, along with the pain and anxiety that this condition had inflicted on me. a big thanks to God almighty, thank you Dr. Imoloa for the powerful herbal medication you have to cure people. you reach him on Email- drimolaherbalmademedicine@gmail.com WhatsApp number- +2347081986098.
