Once, Twice, Three Times a Transfusion
Solomon had some low heart rates and oxygen levels last night and this morning. He had to be "bagged" three times (the nurse had to use the oxygen bag on him). The doctor gave the go ahead on a blood transfusion. His bone marrow is just not mature enough to produce enough hemoglobin so until it is, a transfusion now and then is just what the doctor ordered, literally. He's resting comfortably despite having an IV sticking in his head and another in his hand. The nurses are having an easier time getting IVs in since his veins have grown a bit bigger with the rest of him. 1300 g. Good night everyone!
