Mom got 2 units packed red blood cells. Nurse Rowena was great! After finding out about Mom's fall last Thursday & Mom's upcoming trip to Las Vegas, she asked a bunch more questions and took a look at Mom's thumb. She then called Dr. Chan's office and asked about giving Mom platelets. She is now scheduled for that on Saturday morning. And she won't have to get another cross match, the yellow wrist band she has on will work for the Saturday platelet transfusion. Nurse Rowena will be there on Saturday also, which will make Mom happy.
As promised, Curt brought lunch for us, Barbecue Chicken Salad. He got it from the shrimp truck on the Air Force part of Joint Base Hickam/Pearl Harbor. They were huge! Mom and I shared one but still had enough leftovers for dinner. Curt will take his back to work for lunch tomorrow.
While Mom is getting her transfusion she usually "watches" TV just like she does at home in the afternoon and evening, with her eyes closed. At one point I looked up from my laptop and found her watching "Prinsesa Nglbon", a Filipino language show where Lola (grandmother) is telling her grandchildren fairy tales via Skype. Here is a photo from the end of the show. It would have been better if I got the actual fairy tale which was quite creative and in keeping with Halloween. FYI - Mom does not speak or understand any Filipino dialect.
Meanwhile back in Kohala, the kitchen was used as a staging area for repair supplies earlier this month. It will also be worked on in November after the storage shelving unit is unpacked from the back bedroom. A few things got moved in to place in the kitchen earlier this month. I don't intend to unpack much since I want Chris to renovate the cabinets before I load them up. That will be part of the next phase of repairs.
