On Tuesday, Carla got good news after her blood tests. Her platelet count had to be over 50 before they would remove the Quinton catheter. Her platelet count was 51! Between her blood tests and the appointment with the doctor, we went to the New Outlook shop at the Catholic Hospital. They let her pick out a wig, two hats and a couple scarfs. She hasn't modeled her wig for the camera yet but here is one I liked...
The doctor issued the order for the removal of her catheter and said she could go home. We made arrangements for blood testing in Springfield twice a week and tentatively scheduled Induction 2 to start either January 6 or 8. She was relieved to get the catheter removed and we went back to the apartment to pack.
We got back to Springfield Wednesday night and are glad to be home!
