Verge of a Blood Transfusion

Tommy's been to the hospital yesterday and again today. His blood cells are nearly at their all time low and no sign of avoiding a another wipe out like the first time. The DR is so confident that by tomorrow Tommy will need a platelet transfusion he has us coming in at 1 PM. This doesn't mean he won't still need a blood transfusion over the weekend either he said.

It's official, Tommy now weighs the same as Maggie. It makes me so sad to see all that he's going through. His coloring right now looks terrible! He's all skin and bones, just about kills me to see him like this.

Daryl has pulled himself off the Japan trip so that he's here to help with everything going on. Maggie knows something is up -- she's not sleeping like her normal self and is VERY clingy to Mom these days!

Let's all keep the pray line rock'n like our Lansing, MI Warriors! <><

Good morning Tommy,
Mama said that you aren't feeling too great . . .you go see Dr. Maggic and he will fix you up in no time!
How are the kittys doing? Did your mama tell you that we use to have a cat? Your Auntie Stephanie begged Papa for one when she was about your age.
Love you sweetheart!

All our love,

Gee and Papa
