My dad got a phone call from the hospital this afternoon, they wanted him back urgently, straight away for a platelet transfusion.
He's having regular chemo ATM for non Hodgkin's lymphoma. He's got a rare and aggressive, non curable type. He's also just been told that his health isn't well enough for the stem cell transplant that had previously been mentioned as a possibility. Dr told him to wait and see what new treatments/drugs are developed in the next year!
