This morning, Leo threw up a whole lot of blood and they brought him in to the ICU. Their fear is that the bleeding they corrected last week has returned, but at this point, they are just trying to stabilize him since all his counts dropped as well. He is getting 4 units of platelets and 4 units of blood today to replenish him. They are trying to get his platelets high enough so that they can do another endoscopy like they did last week to see what's going on in there.
He'll likely be here at least a few days. I will keep you posted.
My name is Bernadette Rivera and my husband, Leo was dignosed with Leukemia in 2007. I've decided to create this blog so that you will all have the most current information on Leo and what's going on with his condition and his transplant. I hope this will be an informative (and maybe even entertaining) tool to keep you posted on his progress.
