Hi friends. We are still at the hospital. Ravi checked in September 11, for chemo, but things have gone downhill. He is not able to manage his electrolytes and he has needed several emergency transfusions of platelets and red blood cells. The fevers keep coming and going. Today, we are trying a different antibiotic. Right now, he is receiving two more units of blood. In short, he is miserable. The doctors and nurses on his team are doing everything possible to help him. This is a long haul and I do not know when we will be coming home.
I woke up at 5 this morning and had the urge to go walk on the hospital treadmill and pray. An hour passed very quickly. I felt calmer. Doctors came for rounds and were still puzzled. They ordered more units of blood and greater frequency of taking vitals.
What do we need right now? Friends, we need prayers and good energy. We need divine intervention. Ravi needs all the help he can get. If there is anyone who wants to go over to my house and love on my animals for a bit, that would be hugely helpful, too.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out in love. We can feel your presence. In faith, Harriet.
