Transfusion time

Today with Conlon, Vlad got new and lower numbers: WBC 800 (same), hemoglobin 8.1, platelets 4,000. He also has low blood pressure.

He's headed to the hospital to get a platelet transfusion. If his hemoglobin goes below 8 while he's there, he's to be admitted and will get a full blood transfusion. Keep those fingers crossed.

I'm downtown at work and he's navigating this by himself. I'm petrified, but he swears he's fine.
