Neutropenia on acid

Edouard was a polite little rainstorm for us in west Houston. Very pleased he's well on his way out of town, having left us a few inches of much needed rain.

Vlad is very tired. Conlon retested a couple of numbers today because they were remarkably low: WBC 0.4; hemoglobin 8.3; and platelets 20. He goes back Thursday, if he doesn't develop any bleeding or red spots and has to go back earlier. I'm sure he'll need a platelet transfusion Thursday, if not earlier.

I'm so relieved this storm was nothing, I can't tell you.
