Turn of events- rallying point
This is an occasion I'd appreciate you rallying on my behalf, bringing your wishes, prayers and positive thought to bear on one thing. This was to be a routine visit to Seattle for my second chemo session. Instead, I've developed a life threatening condition called Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC), which is a serious blood disorder. My blood is low on platelets that are not being replaced. The DIC may be due to cancer or the chemo or both. I may rebound from stopping chemo. I need to rebound ASAP. I'll be in the hospital at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle until this condition is stabilized.
