DAY 21 - THURSDAY

February 11, 2009: Jill received a call about her blood tests from Dr Stivala. He said that her platelets were elevated to 665. Normal values are 140-390. I contacted Kate, Dr Burt's nurse practitioner and she said that all her levels were good and that her platelet count would go down in time.
She is definitely feeling better because she wants to go places again and she hasn't had the strength to do that for a long time.
Dr Burt's office is receiving hundreds of calls inquiring about Stem Cell Transplants for MS. The broadcast on CBS News is bringing hope to others suffering from this devastating disease.
Love and Hope to All,
Doreen
