Hello everyone, just wanted to say thanks for all of the kind words.I wish I had some good news but at this point the doctors are still not sure what's wrong with her. She's had 8 blood transfusions and is stable now but there is still no clear reason why she lost so much blood and has no fluid in her bone marrow. They think it's either MDS( Myelodysplastic syndromes are a rare group of blood disorders that occur as a result of improper development of blood cells within the bone marrow), Acquired Aplastic Anemia(a rare disorder caused by profound, almost complete bone marrow failure) or Leukemia. Hopefully they will find out soon so we can see exactly what we are dealing with.....Thanks again for all of the prayers and kind words, every one of them helped..I do have some exciting things that have developed in the last week involving music.I'll get around to sharing those later..Thanks, Randy

I'm glad to hear that they've stabilized her, anyway. My best friend's father-in-law loses blood mysteriously too. They eventually diagnosed him with Leukemia, but if I recall correctly they were initially thinking the blood loss may have had something to do with Lyme disease (which he also has).

He's doing well, by the way. So stay positive.

Randy,

waiting on a diagnosis just sucks. Hope things come to light soon and they can start treatment. Share some of that good news with us when you can. Positive thoughts beget positive thoughts.

the begetting,
