Not a lot of changes today. Harold's platelet count stayed up from the platelets he received yesterday. The hematologist saw him today and will continue to monitor his blood levels. His potassium level was critically low so they gave him two bags. It seems like just a couple of days ago that the potassium was too high. His body just can't seem to level out. His oxygen has stayed up since they suctioned his lungs yesterday. He's not so raspy and that has to feel better! He is not very responsive today, but he does open his eyes when we talk to him and does say "no" when we ask if he's hurting.
They got an extension on his bed to accommodate his 6'4" body. It's nice that his feet have plenty of room and won't hit the end of the bed. I don't think they have too many this tall!
I know there are a lot of prayers going up on Harold's behalf and we appreciate everyone. Its a long road and we appreciate all of you traveling with us.
