Re: Update on Simon!

[Nina]

Michelle, Thank you so much for the news about Simon.  I have been concerned about you guys, and was afraid you weren't posting because it was bad news.  This just makes my day! Much love, Nina [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just got back from the oncologist. I was expecting Simon's blood work to be worse, as his appetite has declined again in the last two days, but his PCV  was normal (33)!!  It had been down to 11 two weeks ago, and he had needed 3 transfusions in 8 days at that point!  His billirubin was 1.3, which is still high, but it had been almost 26! So I am very happy about this, and am hoping that his depressed appetite is just a side effect of the chemo or of the lymphoma dying off.   Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, Michelle
