Guess what?


Pop really did fret his extraction away and took some of his hemoglobin (Hgb) with it. Lucky we had lab work this AM--Hgb was 6.9. Sooooo---Pop is at the hospital getting 2 units of packed red cells, the extraction has been postponed for today and rescheduled for Tuesday. Dr. Moore is also fretting that he gave Pop the Zometa before the dental stuff was checked. Now the Zometa is on hold until all the dental work is completed. It just gets better---we are also now going to be checking for occult blood. Will leave that up to you to figure out how that is going to be done. It just gets almost funny at times----can they come up with any more medications or tests for Pop?

Now I ask all of you to fret and stew---no--no--I mean continue the good thoughts and prayers coming Pops' way.

Love,
Ma

PS: Maddie--only old ladies can eat pie for breakfast---you must wait your turn (or come visit again soon and I will share with you.)

It is a weird ride, isn't it? Your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers daily.

I wasn't sure if it should be family is or family are. Either way sounded wrong.
