Time Says "Go Back To The Hospital"

The cultures from Carly's CSF continue to look good and there does not seem to be any sign of infection in her brain.  While that is a very good thing, Carly has become increasingly uncomfortable over the last few days which had us concerned. Christa brought her in for some additional blood tests earlier today and the results showed that her platelet levels were very low.  As is typical for Carly it is a bit of a mystery what is going on, but she was admitted back into the hospital and will be getting a transfusion tonight to bring her platelet levels back to normal.  They will also run several tests to see if there is an infection somewhere else that could be causing this problem and hopefully we will have some answers tomorrow. Thanks for keeping our little c in your thoughts.

Love, Brad
