Rachelle and Zanette Sorenson dropped by to see Melissa today and brought her some socks and some flowers. They are so pretty! Starr and Bernell Hofheins came by today too.

Melissa's platelet count went from a 60 yesterday to a 29 today. She is going to have another transfusion tomorrow morning. Her white blood cell count is at 12.6 which is now too high. Normal is 10.5. They are running tests to see why it has gone so high.

Tomorrow they are going to do surgery to put a peg tube into Melissa's stomach. This is just a more permanant feeding tube. They think she will probably be going home with a feeding tube so this is necessary. They are going to give her platelets at 6AM and do the procedure at 8AM. Just pray that all goes well.

Thanks again for all your loving notes and prayers. We are truly blessed to have such amazing family and friends.
