It's Sunday evening and I am so happy to report that I've received two good reports on Nikki. The first was her platelet count from Friday came in at a wonderful 41,000! (whoopin,' hollerin,' jumping up and down) They were also able to get her blood on the first attempt. That alone is such a blessing.
I also just heard from Dawn that Nikki had a good day as far as being fairly asymtomatic; no headache, a bit more energy, and fading spots. She did have a nosebleed, but even that was less severe and of shorter duration than before. These improvements are due to the heavy-duty meds she's on. If I'm understanding right, the goal is that her body will take over and basically do what the meds are doing. If not, another round of meds will be needed.
There's such a long road ahead, but at least this stretch is less treacherous than where they've traveled so far.
Please keep praying.
