We spoke to Kinley’s doctor this morning. He was happy with her latest blood test results. No swelling. Her HeRO scores, a composite grade of her vitals, are okay. They generally like them to be a little lower, but her trend is consistent, which is good.
I asked again about her heart rate. They aren’t concerned right now. They expect her to get a little anemic. Her red blood cells will die off faster than she can produce them. In about six weeks, her marrow should increase production. She may need some iron or even later a transfusion, but she’s far away from that. They’ll leave her be unless she starts showing other symptoms.
More and more information for us to absorb. Most importantly, they say Kinley is looking good.
