Yesterday, (day 43 of Intensified Consolidation), Sadie was given Pegaspargase shots in both legs, and Vincristine in her port. Her hemoglobin is low. As of Tuesday it was 7.1, which means she needs another blood transfusion. This same thing happened in December. She needs a transfusion, but Pegaspargase, and blood are both highly reactive, so they can't be given on the same day. We'll be back in the clinic on Friday for her transfusion. I'm a little worried about how low her hemoglobin will get by Friday. She already looks very pale, but seems to be feeling fine. For someone who's hemoglobin is low enough to need a transfusion, she sure has energy!
Here's the pictures Dave took in the hospital yesterday:
Happy Valentine's Day!
