Update #30. Day +4

HB 90
WBC 0.02
PLT 10
N 0.0

- Platelet transfusion today. Nose bleed from last night got worse this morning.
- Throat pain from mucositis getting worse, morphine increased. She's not talking unless essential due to the pain.
- Lauren gone down hill quite a bit in a day ie. in comparison to yesterday.
- Fever still there. 39.4 degrees tonight. Forgot to mention she's had a fever since Day +1.
- Only thing of note today, her christmas tree (see photo Update #25) was replaced with a new Christmas tree that has 'two trunks' and more pumps than before. The number of lines going into Lauren are more confusing than trying to unravel christmas lights. Must be six pumps utilised as that many powerpoints are being used.
