Donate blood! :)
I’ve decided we all probably need to donate blood to replace the many pints that Mom has needed during her 3 years of treatment. I have donated before but it’s been a little while so it’s only fair since Mom had to get 2 more pints today that someone very graciously donated. Thanks blood donors!
So Mom’s fall was worse than we thought :( She spent most of the day consulting with a surgeon, getting looked over, and receiving 2 pints of blood at the hospital. They were worried that she might have had internal bleeding from hurting her stomach and stoma area when she swan-dived into the pavement yesterday; sorry Mom
but it is kind of funny, lol. Luckily, they decided that she is okay after being checked out and that they don’t actually think internal bleeding is occuring. But they told her to take it very easy for the next several days. She felt really good today but she usually always does after receiving blood. She wanted to go shopping afterwards of course. Hopefully we can avoid any more falls for awhile!
