Waiting.....

Terry's blood counts have dropped some so she has been given more blood and now we are waiting to see how she responds. Since her last transfusion her blood count has come up a little, but still not enough. If her levels stabilize (next blood draw is 10 p.m.- and it takes about an hour to get results) then they will take her back into surgery tomorrow to clean up the bleeding. If her count continues to drop more tonight then they will be taking her into the operating room right away. An ultrasound of her liver was done today and looks healthy. This morning her urine output dropped and has been down throughout the day, this causes some concern that her kidneys are not functioning properly- we are still waiting for results on these tests. Please continue to check back regularly- we'll do our best to keep it updated.
