Anytime there is a big drum roll something big is about happen, right? At a rock concert the big drum roll may indicate the last song of the night, and one of your band’s biggest hits is about to get played. I hope you hear drums playing in your head right now starting to play faster and louder, and your favorite song is about to be played so loud and awesome at your favorite bands sold out concert.
Monday, September 27th is a big day for me and Team Phelps. I have a blood test at 2:50 pm. My radiation chemo treatment will be at its usual time, and after my treatment I will meet with my radiation oncologist, Jennifer Peterson. I am assuming that I will get an update on my platelets when I meet with her. My oncology team is adjusting some of my anti-seizure medication along with adding steroids in order to help boost my platelet count. It looks like they are going to keep a very close eye on my platelet counts. I will have another blood test on Wednesday, September 29th at 3:00 pm before my treatment.
Drum roll please! Keep those prayers coming. I am praying and believe with you for platelets to rise. Thanks so much for keeping me in your prayers. I really need them and covet them. I feel surrounded by your prayers, and this is how we win our battles.
