Day +44 - Amanda Here-Dr van Rhee-PET images


Amanda came for a short visit. She and Deb have been chatting all morning about family history. 

Deb is getting both red blood and platelets today. 

+++++++++++++++++++

Dr van Rhee came by to examine Deb. Amanda asked about the PET requirements from yesterday. He invited her out into the hall where the computer allowed him to pull up Deb's images . He gave Amanda a lesson in images. 



 



 Check back later


Platelets -(Normal range 150-500) a whitish colored component of blood. Low platelets=higher Woozy factor!
CRP -(Normal range = 0.0-10) An indicator of relative health. Lower is better. When the number creeps up, Deb could be getting sick.

  2. I don't post often, but you are all in my prayers constantly. Know there are prayers being lifted all the time by people unknown to you.
    Love,
