Lilly has been asking to build a fort since we've been home from the hospital. Today we went all out and built it. I think Lilly and Emery like it. What do you think?
Today we've also be concerned about Lilly's blood count and her platelet levels, so we called to have Lilly's home nurse Browyn come and take some blood. Signs of her lower levels are petechiae (small red dots of blood) and her pale skin pigment. Petechiae is the sign of low platelets and the pale skin is sign of low red blood cells. She also bruises very easily.
She chose to have her blood taken from her arm since she had her port de-accessed yesterday.
So, once we find out the results they'll determine if she needs to have transfusions or wait till Tuesdays clinic appointment.
