PLEASE REVIEW PREVIOS THREAD!!

Right! But where is Prevois's thread?:)

Mr. Bush and his wife Maria are both in my prayers today.

Just spoke with Maria, the doctor made rounds and has said he'll specify a donor in Memphis, yes we have one there now, who has agreed to give blood. the procedure is to identify donors by name. The doctor, at this time, wants to restrict the donations to the Memphis area, so thanks to everyone who offered but lives elsewhere, we may contact you if enough local blood doesn't become available.

By the way, just to bring everyone up to date. The doctor said "absolutely not" when they asked him about the previous evenings proposal to give Maria's husband O+ blood.

This certainly brings home the necessity to take personal responsibility for our medical treatment. I know I've learned a lot from this situation!

I'd pony up and donate myself, except that I'm O+.

I saw this last night, but my husband is not home to answer.

Thanks for the ping.

Keeping our FRiend Maria and her family in our prayers.

Thanks onyx, We are home and my husbands blood count is up from critical to where he can be treated from the Dr.'s office.

We decided not to take the chance on O- as no one had ever heard of giving a cross match on the floor. only if a person was gushing and it really didn't matter.

They finally decided that it was the Celiac Spru that was the problem and will probably happen again down the road.

Thanks for your prayers. All is fine as of now.

Thank you for replying, Maria.
Thank God. Thank God your husband is on the mend.

I asked my husband as soon as he returned and he could not recall anything such measure being sanctioned.

Take care, dear FRiend and may God bless you and your family.

[Coldwater Creek]

Thanks to all! We are home and doing OK. We have some O- blood in the bank now. I know that the prayers were heard and answered.

Maria

[Coldwater Creek]

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. My husband is doing enough better to be able to come home and be treated from the Dr.'s office. Thanks again

FWIW, I was O +

After receiving a bone marrow transplant, I am now O -

Cancer free for 14 + years.

[Coldwater Creek]

Thanks, your advice is exactly what we decided to do. There might be another time that he would need that 0+ in an accident or emergency surgery.

Maria

[pepperdog]

Wow, I bet that was a surprise!

[pepperdog]

Glad you are both home safely. Take the rest of the day off and just rest!

[srmorton]

I'm so glad I was able to help! I hope I didn't get too technical. I tried to explain it as I would to my MLT students. I will keep you and your husband in my prayers.

[Recall]

Thanks for letting us know. I moved to Memphis last year but nobody in my family has that blood type.

St Jude's may have what he needs.

Prayers to Maria and her family. If there is anything at all I can do please let me know!
