911 update

Well, it has been a crazy evening…Around 4:00 this afternoon Mike started to have some body aches so he took his pain meds…with still no relief 15 minutes later, he took more pain meds. By 4:45 he was screaming in pain and writhing all over the bed that his body felt paralyzed and his bones were “exploding”… I made the call to the Cancer Center and was told to call 911. An ambulance took him to the community hospital where they were able to bring his pain to a tolerable level. During last week’s treatment he was given a shot of Neulasta to boost his WBC which is also known for severe bone pain. The hospital ran all kinds of tests and determined that everything looks fine except that Mike has close to zero white blood cells. He was admitted for pain management and to keep an eye on his blood tests. With the low WBC, I am not sure whether he will be kept at the Community Hospital or transferred to Moffitt.

Thank you to everyone who has been praying – please keep them coming!!

I will keep everyone posted if there are any new developments!
