More of the same

Not much to report, just more slow recovery. V. made a trip to UCSF this week and received a unit of platelets. She will do this twice a week until her counts rise to an adequate level. Between the trip to the city over the Bay Bridge, waiting at the clinic, and getting any treatments it's an all day affair which is very tiring, but it's still better than hospitalization.

I think the thing V. needs from us most right now is continued support in taking it slowly and accepting that her recovery will take a long time. She is very, very fatigued (still not feeling up to doing much e-mail) and disappointed that she's not perking up faster.
