12/26

Myra's spirit was a bit blah today. This is a bit of a change for her- she's been able to stay so positive, upbeat and humorous the last 3 weeks of this roller coaster.

Myra had dialysis today and it went well. They did discover that her hemoglobin has dropped a bit since Christmas Eve. It was at 8.2 and they prefer it to be at 9, so she received 2 units of blood cells.

We're always happy to have a positive dialysis because its during dialysis that she encounters the extremely low blood pressures and that is when things become 'hairy' for her.
