Mom and Dad were excited that Dad mustered up enough energy to attend Maggie's baptism in California over the weekend. I was really nervous for him to go, but he wore his mask on the plane and tried to take it easy, getting plenty of naps in between events. They had a great time with Chris and Ellie's family and arrived back in Albuquerque last night.
Dad had another appointment with the oncologist today, and they discovered that his red blood cell count is at 2.7. That's low! Consequently, his blood pressure is extremely low, too. He's scheduled to get a blood transfusion with 2 units of blood first thing tomorrow morning. Thank you blood donors! Hopefully, this will help Dad be in a position to get his next round of chemotherapy starting on Thursday. We'll just have to see how things go.
Ron you are a super hero! Super DAD and Super GRANDDAD!
