The counts have hit bottom

I just spoke with Maurice and he sounds great. You wouldn't know it but his white counts are zero, his hemoglobin is 6.2 (normal is 14), his platelets are less than 50k (normal is 250k), etc, etc. He was told that he needs to stay in the hospital for the rest of the week because with his bone marrow severely comprimised, he is at risk for a number of problems.

With all of this going on, he sounds energized and looking forward to working on his blog.

His 75th birthday is coming up this Sunday, so we hope he will be out of the hospital.

Good luck dad
