MDS Becomes AML - More Top Notch Hospital Socks

The word came down in no uncertain terms: those socks need washing.

"No! No!" I argued. "These socks are way too comfortable and, besides, they're still the hit of the hospital."

It could've gotten ugly.

But—wait. Leena the Elder rode in to the rescue like the U.S. Cavalry with . . . replacement socks.

For them what tracks 'em, today's counts:
  • Platelets: 21,000
  • Hemoglobin: 8.2
  • White Cells: 13.6
Whoa! Look at that white count. That's Neupogen in action. Dr. O says we're looking good, tracking right, and has high hopes that no transfusions will be necessary.

Me, too.
