Platelet update

As mentioned before the plan is to wait on Avery’s platelets before going home. The Doctor let us know that if the counts are over 50K two draws in a row, we’d be good to go. However, if they ever get 25K or under we’d do the same procedure that Zoe had. Avery, since her second draw, has been consistently between 34K and 40K, so we are in a waiting game at this point. They are still waiting every 8 hours for the next draw to see what direction they naturally will take and we are waiting anxiously to find out. The good news is that Avery is in otherwise perfect health and she is eating well. Mom and Dad are a bit tired, but are optimistic we’ll be taking her home soon.

While we wait, we thought we’d post some more pictures…

    The pix are fab and hugely appreciated!!

    Do they give you the “Star is Born” card from Avery’s bassinet? It’s a nice souvenir.
