While we were driving around today, I had the temperature on Mom's side of the car at 85 degrees and her seat warmer on the lowest setting; Mom said it was perfect. On my side the temperature was 70 degrees and no butt warmer; also perfect!
I am expecting Dr. Chan's office to call tomorrow morning to set Mom up for a transfusion later this week. She has been complaining that her neck is sore because her head is too heavy and her neck is too long; her favorite complaint that usually shows up in the few days before she needs a transfusion. She is also sleeping a lot more. I signed up for access to Mom's file through the Kaiser website; I got an alert this afternoon about 4:30 that her test results from this morning's blood draw were available. Her hemoglobin is at 7.2 gm/dl and her platelet pack is 6K/uL. Dr. Chan's criteria for a transfusion is when Mom's hemoglobin goes below 8 gm/dl or her platelet pack is below 10K/uL.
One of the errands we did today took us past another view of Leahi. This is number 26 in the series. It was taken from 11th Avenue, looking southwesterly.

Here's another baby picture. This is my friends' Anne & Mary Kay's grandson Jace, born on 11/28. His mother Kathy was the one that made the all-Korean food rehearsal dinner for the wedding I returned to Washington in July for.
Happy Birthday to Kathryn & Jon! Happy 7th Anniversary to Everett & Alyssa!
