From the mouths of babes

My 12 year old son (we'll call him NerdBoy from here on out) asked me today why I've got these bruises on my arm and why I had to have a blood test last night when I was supposed to be making dinner ( Read more... )

YAY BRI!!!!!!

My mom had some thing that was about her platelets for years before she died (it was NOT a contributor to her death). They thought she had Leukemia at first too. I can't believe I forgot about that. I'll look up the name of hers tomorrow.

She had to take a pill. That was the only effect it had on her life. I need to remember to mention it to my doctor.

That's wonderful news! Well, not wonderful that you're sporting gigantic bruises, but wonderful that it's not leukemia. Hopefully they'll work out what it is so they can treat it.

There isn't enough "squee" in the universe.

That is great news, Bri, even though you're puzzling the medical profession (it doesn't take much, trust me *grin*). Your son is absolutely right. I love him. Love you. Keep us posted, PLEASE!

*huge sigh of relief*

I know the mystery isn't solved yet, but at least it wasn't the awful "L" word.

And out of the mouths of babes. I hope you do feel better, and the doctor inflicted cut heals up fast.
