D-Day

Today is the big one: crunch time, the semester final, the game for all the marbles. Why, you ask? Because last week was the first week that Eden's platelets rose of their own accord--from 110,000 the week before to over 200,000 last Monday. And that's without an IVIg boost, folks, which makes it the first time (in her life, as far as we know, although definitely since May) her platelets chose to stop dyin' and start livin'.

So today we find out if last week was a just fluke or if her body has finally decided that self-destruction is not the best answer.

Hold your breath, cross your fingers, and say some prayers.
